The brushwork in this piece by Lazzaro is suggestive of swift movement, the figure tossing his head back in what appears to be sinister laughter.

Adrian Lazzaro's character-based artworks feature the likes of wrestlers, zombies, teddy bears and lovers. The heavily rendered works are executed in a saturated comic strip colour range, creating a heightened emotional, dramatic and carnivalesque atmosphere. The imagery blends sinister interpretations with a quirky sense of humour, often projecting a wry outlook.

Lazzaro has worked at Arts Project Australia since 2004. He's regularly exhibited in group shows and was a finalist in the Petite Miniature Textiles Biennial, Wangaratta Art Gallery, which resulted in a piece being acquired for their permanent collection. Public collections include City of Moreland and Wangaratta Art Gallery. His work is also held in national and international private and corporate collections.
