L.W. Howard | Pittore Romantico di figure

Non sappiamo niente della biografia di questo artista che si firma L.W. Howard, ma un fatto è certo: Le sue opere ti portano alla produzione artistica del pittore Pino Daeni (1939-2010).

Comunque, dal poco che sappiamo, L.W. Howard è un artista Americano (una coincidenza?, visto che Pino Daeni è stato un atista italo-americano).

Howard è molto noto per il suo stile romantico-figurativo.

Howard ama disegnare figure femminili, alcune delle quali condivido qui.
