Local artist and long time friend of the Gamm Theatre, Vincent Castaldi has been featured both solo and in group shows at galleries and exhibitions throughout New England.  This particular painting recalls the Gamm's production of Red Noses, by Peter Barnes.  Framed 27 1/2" x 21 1/2".

Born and raised in Rhode Island, there has never been a time when Vincent Castaldi was not an artist, following the muse; studying fine art, drawing, pottery.  In junior high school he attended Rhode Island School of Design Jr. School Program and later returned to RISD to study fine art, illustration, caricature, children’s illustration and editorial art. In between he worked as a teacher’s assistant and youth art instructor.  After graduating, as a participant in the RISD European Honors Program he traveled to Rome where he studied culture and language while continuing to study and practice drawing and painting.  As his artistic vision grew and refined, he added layered elements of collage, using his notes, scribbles and sketches as the base element, allowing them to peek out from underneath his pastels like glimpses into his psyche; the heart and inspiration of his art.
