George Billis Gallery is pleased to present ‘Proof of Life (Part 2),’ the gallery’s third solo exhibition of paintings by Southern California realist painter, Francis DiFronzo. This new body of work continues DiFronzo’s contemplation of the American West. ‘Proof of Life' will be on view at the gallery through July 17th.
Francis Di Fronzo’s ethereal paintings depict imagined landscapes from a world of his own creation. His hauntingly beautiful paintings alternate between reality and the surreal as they present desolate and mysterious places. Di Fronzo creates from both direct observation of the world and from his imagination. The final paintings are highly realistic images which wander from familiar and mundane into the unknown realm of the artist's mind.
