  • “Bleeding Lean” print by Charlie Immer

    Virtu Art Gallery is really coming up with some amazing prints lately, I was just talking about Charlie Immer a bit ago. The gallery has released a new print by Charlie entitled “Bleeding Lean”. The print is 10″ x 30″ on canvas, each one hand embellished by the artist. They are signed and numbered in an edition of 30, and also come with a certificate of authenticity. It’s a great looking print, and I like the idea that its a different size than most prints tend to be.

    Opening this Saturday, September 18th at the Christopher Hill Gallery in St. Helena, CA, is the latest solo show of Carles Gomila.

In order to create these stunning works, Carles using oils, acrylics, copper and gold leaf on different types of canvas.
