About The Artwork

A strong wind sweeps over the swamp. The rain-laden clouds rush by, the mountains look like lead. The reeds bend until they touch the ground, one close to the other. There are many of them, and the rustle of their leaves adds to the hiss of the wind. Above them is a tree, with a slender trunk. Its foliage desperately fights the wind. He is alone, there are no other trees nearby. And alone he must endure. It happens to everyone that they have to face difficult moments and adversity in life. And sometimes one has to fight alone, just like that slender tree. Created in the studio in December 2022, this painting is a reworking of several studies executed en plein air. The work is painted in oil on Masonite, a panel made of pressed wood fibres. Masonite is a material widely used by artists in the first half of the 20th century as a support for their paintings because it is extremely resistant and crushproof. I love painting on this material because its very smooth surface allows me to achieve effects that cannot be achieved on other materials. I also have the guarantee of high durability. The signature is in the bottom right-hand corner. The painting is protected by a layer of satin acrylic varnish. The work comes with a thin wooden frame in natural colour to protect the edges. It is ready to hang. The overall measurements of the framed painting are: centimetres: 52.2 W x 42.3 H x 2.5 D inches: 20.6" W x 16.6" H x 1" D The work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. "Alone in the storm" is a faithful translation of the original Italian title "Solo nella tempesta".

I am an Italian professional artist, born in 1969. I love nature, sunlight, the shadows of trees. I used nature to learn to paint, I discovered nature by painting. My pictorial research on nature began thirty years ago, in the woods of the Tuscan hills. Since then I have created countless studies en plein air, which I rework and synthesize in my studio. I am searching for a quick painting style, in one go and without hesitation, which can convey all the sensations that nature offers me. My goal is to paint pictures that, once hung, are able to irradiate the entire room with light, like a window wide open to nature. And I would like them to return the heat of summer, the frost of winter, the warm wind of spring. I love walking a path and reproducing it in my paintings. The path transforms into an invitation for the viewer to enter the painting. I often think of the path as a life journey, with goals in the distance and experiences left behind. I am in love with grass, ditches and marshes. I am obsessed with narrow "passages" between the bushes of a forest or the reeds of a swamp. I pass through them safely and happily, always imagining I am entering another dimension. My paintings are not simply landscapes. They are compositions that tell stories, moods or situations transfigured in nature. They are prayers, hymns to joy, praises to life. My artworks are notes of the magic that I experience every time I go out to paint, tools to remember it, pretexts to experience it again. As a separate discipline, I am also interested in portraiture, which I have always practised, also on commission. I live and work in my home-studio in Lucca, Tuscany (Italy).
