The boyish charm of Actor Anthony La Paglia.
Mixed-media on canvas.
I met Actor Anthony La Paglia in Melbourne. He sat for some life drawings. I did several paintings in the studio after our meeting. I kept Anthony up to date with the finished pieces and both he and his wife have been very
supportive and happy with the results. I got Anthony to sign one of the drawings I did of him but he also wrote, “Thank you for making me art.” Anthony has this wonderful boyish charm in person and when I came home to my wife after
drawing him she said I was in such a good mood that he is best antidepressant she has
ever come across.
