About this artwork
The Mona smirk is a modern take on Leonardo's painting The Mona Lisa. The artist remembers visiting this painting in the Louvre. It took time to get through the throngs of people and he could only glance at the painting for less than a minute before he was told to move on. But he revisited this painting by painting the classic lady. He found it rather difficult to paint the subtle shades. It felt as if she was asking, Oh you thought you could paint…
me?. This is his interpretation of the painting. The background is done in textured acrylics with modern striking colors and the face in oil painting. Done on heavy canvas and stretched on a sturdy wooden frame. Mounted deep to give it a modern touch

« I am an accomplished potter that has now turned to painting. My work is fresh and exciting. It is good to be alive and to create beautiful pictures. »
Gerdus Bronn is a painter who resides in Mauritius. He feels that art must 'evoke emotions and stir the viewer' and can only be accomplished through good composition and technique. His pieces are meticulously planned and begin with detailed pen and ink drawings. Bronn paints using vibrant acrylic colors that bleed through the oils he adds later.
