across the moat Painting

Welcome to my world of colours and emotions! I am a landscape and abstract painter, and I invite you to explore my art that reflects the beauty of nature and the depth of human feelings. Born in Bedford, UK to Italian parents, I am an ex-pat artist currently living and painting in Italy. My artistic journey began early, fueled by a passion and talent for drawing and painting. I studied fashion design and clothing technology at Barnfield College of Arts & Technology. My career in fashion included stints with Inega Jeans and Rapture Jeans, as well as work in the costume department for films like *Barry Lynden* and *Revolution*. Despite these pursuits, I consistently cultivated my artistic skills, culminating in a significant achievement in 1992 with my work being showcased in a Gallery of Soho, New York. Today, I paint full-time, exploring various mediums and styles, particularly enjoying plein air landscapes and abstract forms, including Dutch pouring and Geodes. My art reflects a unique fusion of fashion sensibility and nature, earning praise for its vibrant detail and composition. My art has been published in numerous art books, and received many critiques of merit. My work is characterized as a captivating blend of realism and abstraction, capturing the beauty and complexity of our world. As I continue to build my following, I invite you to explore my distinctive artistic vision. My Art is quickly becoming a name to watch in the contemporary art world. If you're looking for art that is both beautiful and meaningful, look no further.
