Hombre en la calle

Man on the street

This original acrylic on canvas painting from Dominican Artist, Carlos Olivo is simple, yet captivating. There is a young man lying on the dark brown and red brick street. His blue flip-flops are scattered beside him. He appears to have tried to make himself comfortable on this unusual resting place. Mr. Olivo adeptly uses geometric shapes to form the street. His use of strong lines and shading brings a sense of reality to this piece.
