This is wonderful! Inspired by the fantastic imagery in the wonderful adventure books of Jules Verne, my favorite reads as a kid. This piece was created with shiny watercolors and artist quality graphic markers, and outlined with silver acrylic paint. In the depths, where you might expect darkness, blindness and confusion one might be surprised to find color, vibrancy, aliveness, and thriving. Every time I paint, I pay attention to where exactly the next curve is going to meet the previous shape, and how this color will blend in with the rest. What's interesting is that, when you are in a state of flow - very well known to successful artists and to all creatives in general -, you feel in that place where you know you are in perfect control of the artwork and at the same time you are being led, almost passively into a land of marvelous exploration and innovation. I like to innovate the way colors can be applied one next to the other, and often I choose watery, wave-like, organic environments to express this concept and state of mind. This point of creation, or pre-creation, is still the realm of abstraction but depicted a tiny fraction of time before it manifests into more concrete and discrete elements. One circle becomes a nautilus shell, a few parallel lines become algae and seaweed evolves into more mobile creatures of known and imaginary features. Science fiction has inspired a lot my early curiosity and has been pouring all over my paintings. Science fiction is an awesome way of looking at the world: science and unexplored, yet unproven possibility, together. Stark and dry certainty combined with vague, dream-like invention. New geometries which have new special symmetries of their own. A very curious adventure indeed. Watercolor on paper makes all this fluidity so easy to accomplish and hint to! Don't you just want to dive in, too?! Thank you for liking, buying, sharing my art!

Matteo Sica - Colour Wave Art is a mutli-media artist concerned with manifesting feelings of harmony, silent awe, and joyful enthusiasm for life. I come from the warm Southern Italian sea-town of Salerno, and I am currently based in Slovakia, inspired by the mountain air which breathes on its capital city, Bratislava. Here I work in my atelier as a mixed-media painter and fashion stylist. I also work as a teacher of creative writing at the Italian Institute of Culture. The following video shows you the exciting opening act of one of my colorful exhibitions ("AMORnia", held at the Embassy of Italy to Slovakia) where I sing my own poem in the musical performance of my creative team: https://youtu.be/Eer1IQgFUgI My colours are coming from within my southern Italian roots. I translate the vibrancy of life there into chromatic wavelengths. Shape is interesting for me, but the dialogues between colours is highly fascinating. In my artistic code, forms are containers of colours. When you look at my abstract artwork, look at it as a landscape from above, where all the curves and lines morph into new endings and new beginnings of ever expanding and ever merging natural elements: a hill becomes a fence, which touches a patch of sky, which is seen through leaves of a portion of a tree, by a microscopic lake embedded into a huge rock. Microscopic and macroscopic world collaborate into new realities, zooming in and out between concrete and abstract. Between literal and dream-like. I like the "wow" effect very much. I like "loud" colours but I skillfully balance them into a pleasantly exciting whole for a unique sensorial experience. I draw on paper with watercolours and graphic markers and I paint on medium to very large canvases with every art material there is: preferably I include acrylics, tempera, chalks, inks. My colours are a dance of ecstasy, the ecstasy of nature, good health, good mood, purity, playfulness, innocence, a divine connection with the whole, kindness, boldness, and synergy of positive energy. A few things, among the million ones I like: sea waters, mountain streams, ice-cream, pizza, mozzarella (I am mostly vegetarian now), quiet and smart people, to smile, to have stains of colors under my nails, to bike, to tell the truth, to spend time with family and best friends, cats, to sip tea, to read books, to write the best yet written novel, to illustrate my own fairy-tales (the latter is still in dream form).
