Description Tower, ancient stones and grapes
acrylics on stoneware
cm 40x40

  • I live in a city where medieval towers are the usual landscape that presents itself to me every time I walk in the streets or I look out the window of my study. So these images of the towers are so imprinted in my mind that I can safely use them as icons to be organized to my liking on the canvas. The result is a series of paintings that represent a city than ever before because it is a figment of my imagination and my rework. In this case for adapting the work to the theme of the stones I used to support a slab of stoneware, very heavy and very present, very "physical". ++++++++++++++++++++++++ITALIAN++++++++++++++++++++ Vivo in una città in cui le torri medievali costituiscono il paesaggio consueto che mi si presenta ogni volta che passeggio per le strade o mi affaccio alla finestra del mio studio. Così queste immagini delle torri sono talmente impresse nella mia mente che posso usarle tranquillamente come delle icone da organizzare a mio piacimento sulla tela. Il risultato è una serie di dipinti che rappresentano una città mai vista perché è un frutto della mia fantasia e della mia rielaborazione. In questo caso, per adeguare il lavoro al tema delle pietre ho usato come supporto una lastra di gres, molto pesante e molto presente, molto "fisico".

I'm quite enchanted by this artwork. The color scheme makes it feel serene while the bottom half with the grapevines adds a sense of chaos. It's hard to find an abstract artwork I that truly enjoy but I certainly found one here today. I'm not familiar with painting on stoneware. Does the stone absorb some of the paint, is it a smooth surface? I'm quite curious about your technique. I've only painted with watercolors and oils on canvas so I'm not familiar with stoneware paintings. It's not something I see from any of the artists in my locale. Congratulations on the daily deviation; I'm not sure I would have come across this otherwise.

thank you Lizzie. Stoneware is a beautiful surface to painting on it's a very smooth surface but I give it two coat of gesso before painting. It's fine for watercolours too.

Thank you for answering. I'll definitely do some more research on stoneware painting since I always have trouble finding a good canvas whenever I try to paint something because the texture is either wrong or it soaks up the paint too much.

What a wonderful combination of elements in this painting! Love the contrast between the rectangles and the vine and grape shapes. Your use of color brings it all together. Congrats on the DD!

Oh! I see Offermoord wrote my same comment... and I was thinking how clever I was... well, I guess it's great to share emotions and chemistry of spirits, and that's what art is supposed to do

I love how the liquid, plump, organic aspects of the grapes contrasts with te square geometry of the towers (which reminds me of San Gemignano, ho indovinato?). Bellissimo, smart tecnique!

this reminds me of the artist Astrid dahl's works !! She is my favourite artist and her paintings often depict the wild australian landscape. I'm not sure whether you intended to do a similar thing but this is simply beautiful. I love the interaction with the chaotic squiggles and circles with the organised and precise squares. I also love the colours (y)

This is beautiful. Love the geometrical background combined with the looseness of the spring of branches & the translucent orbs that resemble grapes  & sea weed pods.
