Uber Modello


Modello: It. - a small version of a larger commissioned painting used to show the person or body commissioning the large work for approval before the final design is put to hand. (In sculpture it is called a maquette which is French for a small model or in Italian a bozzetto.

The original presentation modello was 30” x 12”. In preparations for this much larger format I have painted three 10’ x 5’ modellos which I’ve called Uber Modellos. The final painting will be 15 feet high and 9 feet across
