>I am an international award winning artist based in Florence.   I studied Drawing and Painting at Florence Classical Arts Academy and then I was graduated  Level I (Bachelor degree) at Libera Accademia di Belle Arte Firenze in Florence Italy.  I have participated exhibition, Biennale nationwide in Italy and internationally.     I have won numerous International Awards.



ARTIST STATEMENT


Art is my passion and it is a channel for me to express my subconscious emotion and sentiment.  In my painting, I am strongly influenced by the late 19th century French Impressionism of Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. In my exploration of impressionism I am attracted by the contrasts of light and shadow by the strong and vivid colours that fix the painters' sensations on the canvas. I love their free brushstrokes and their preference for painting plein air.  I am also very interested in the correlation between color and shape. I prefer vibrant color because it gives me a sense of freshness, joy and brightness.  I am strongly convinced that there is a relationship between color and mood that is also subject to the external factors as well as our five senses.  During the covid pandemic, I found out that one's emotion can influence one's observation of the environment especially the color.  One night I went out to the terrace for some fresh air, I was astounding that the sky and the buildings surrounding me appeared completely in blue.  It was absolutely amazing and beautiful, so I realised it on my painting "Feeling of the blue".   I love being an artist because I can realise my fantasies and ideas on my canvas.  Hence I love experimenting with different media in order to achieve those ideas in my mind,  such as gold/metal leaf, air brush, alcohol ink and spray paint etc.
