BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING ON CANVAS "Sympatico".  A truly stunning painting - Really needs to be seen in the flesh!! A Clown, distraught, collapes back after being told he is to be sacked and the small Clown tries to console his friend!! The small Clown's face is pure Genius!! Leon Goodman said that this is his best example of expressionism an art form rarely painted these days!!! It's form is profoundly portayed in Edvard Munch's "The Scream"!!!! Goodman has personified the universal feeling of despair and sadness when facing redundancy. The seated clown is twisted into a knot of despair- His back is bent, his legs are twisted and in the background the Circus tent's supporting poles power down onto the two clowns!!! He has just received his redundancy notice. His friend is tilting up the Clown's top hat so that he can see his face to sympathise!! The little friends face is a masterpiece of Sympatico!! In the tradition of expressionism Goodman has used his brush to keep the features unfocussed, yet they magnificently convey his genuine concern!!
