Just in time for holiday gifting, a curated selection of small works by floral painter Michael De Feo.
Craven Contemporary has had the pleasure of exhibiting larger works by De Feo in several shows at the gallery over the last few years. We are excited now to present this online curated selection of smaller works which are perfect for holiday gifting. De Feo makes the smaller works on paper in between making larger works and both formats inform each other.
