By age 20 he was already considered a master. Novaro always works alone, with no assistants. His technique is one of studied intention, with each move completing a desired result. And the result is often breathtaking. Novaro's unique style has become well known for its weight, depth and multiple layers of color with clear glass, an effect requiring exquisite talent.
