Nowak and Ivona with Bob Hurley at…
Nowak is inspired by the features of long-time friend Ivona, so much so Nowak has painted her twice in 'Ivona' and 'Bettina's Orchard.' Both paintings were shown in New York City and Montauk. Nowak prefers to work with her on a large scale, both paintings are 68x52 inches and 52x72 inches respectively. Nowak finds that Ivona's skin tone and the angles of her face transpire well onto canvas and add great definitions of light. Nowak's painting 'Ivona' is still available for purchase.
