DESCRIPTION
Better Luck Next Time is a figurative painting by Steven Paledino that blends noir storytelling with surreal symbolism. The work presents a sharply dressed character frozen mid-gesture — part gambler, part specter — suspended between confidence and consequence.
Executed with a restrained monochrome palette, the piece reflects Paledino’s ability to merge narrative tension with formal elegance, creating imagery that feels both timeless and cinematic.
