Puro... Alegría #III. This piece is a mixed media collaboration between two artists. A photographic portrait taken in 2001 by James Sparshatt on Plaza de la Catedral in Havana, Cuba, is given new life and spirit through painter Rachael Dalzell's bold use of paint and colour.
The piece does not require a frame and is ready to hang.

Graciela was an icon of Old Havana in Cuba. The portrait has her face half-shrouded in smoke which evokes a sense of mystery and depth. The photograph captures her weathered features, subtly hinting at the passage of time etched across her visage. The audacious pops of color breathe life into the composition. The oversized glasses, saturated with a reflective blue, introduce a modern, almost rebellious spirit to Graciela. Meanwhile, the vivid yellow earrings, dissected into a cascade of shapes, disrupt the monochrome serenity, drawing the eye with their radiant vibrancy. A cigar, clenched defiantly between her lips, exudes smoke which melds seamlessly with her wispy hair, adorned with a turquoise headscarf. This juxtaposition of elements creates a fascinating interplay between tradition and contemporary flair.
This artwork is not merely a portrait; it is a statement on resilience, individuality, and the unapologetic embrace of one's identity. In its essence, this piece commands attention and incites introspection.

This seller rewards your purchases of multiple artworks
Photographer James Sparshatt and painter Rachael Dalzell are collaborating to create a series of “Neo Platinum” portraits.
The process begins with the production of a palladium platinum print of one of Sparshatt‘s Spirit of Revolution pieces which is then re-interpreted by Dalzell using the vibrancy of acrylic paints and her distinctive technique to bring a new energy and appreciation.
