About the Item

Greenhead Road is an original oil painting on canvas. It depicts a winding road in summer, leading down to the sea. The sunshine sparkles on the water in the distance and the palette of greens and blues combine to form a beautiful scene on Maine in summer. Leo Mancini-Hresko (b. 1981) grew up in Boston and attended classes at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and Rhode Island School of Design. He eventually ended up at the Florence Academy of Art, in Florence, Italy where he studied and subsequently taught for 10 years. Leo now works and teaches out of his Waltham, MA studio. Leo’s work has been exhibited widely and can be found in private collections worldwide. His work has been acquired by the New Britain Museum of American Art. "The most important element in painting is the creation of imagery. A beautiful image must be considered in composition, color, drawing and execution; it is not enough, however, to just make an image including all four elements. Already that is well difficult. A painting should be painted, you must see the process, the brushstrokes, creation of the ground, glazes and impastos. No two inches of any picture should be treated the same. What always drew me to painting was the contrast between rough and smooth, harsh and subtle. That is where beauty is. I hope to draw the viewer in, to see the world a moment in the way I do."
