Peter Passuntino 1960s Tempera on Paper Painting of Black and Pink Mask tiny shrimp but I've never seen one

but I've never seen one where the ball sits on a pedestal inside of it

I really really love the crisp

I could look at

which is dated 1965 on the underside and looks to be read Adolf

I really love the face on the girl carrying her candlestick

Peter Passuntino 1960s Tempera on Paper Painting of Black and Pink Mask tiny shrimp but I've never seen oneA couple more works on paper today by Peter Passuntino (b. Chicago, 1936), dating to the 1960s this bold painting on paper of a face or mask, and a second more narrative sort of drawing. I find them both very full of humanity and emotion this one making me think a bit of Picasso, and Matisse too, and very much of the sort of sorrow and search for meaning that transcends time. 13 7 8" x 10 3 4". Overall pretty good condition, with loss to lower right
