Hope Painting

I was born in Moncalieri, a picturesque town near Turin in Italy. From the tender age of 4, I found solace and joy in the world of painting. It was my grandmother and great-aunt, both talented professional artists, who first introduced me to the magic of colors and brushes. As a wide-eyed child, I eagerly soaked up their wisdom and techniques. In those early years, I delved into the realm of oil painting, carefully crafting vibrant scenes on canvas. However, as I matured as an artist, I felt an undeniable pull towards experimentation. I yearned to push the boundaries of my artistic expression and explore new avenues of creativity. Embracing this thirst for innovation, I ventured into the realm of acrylic painting, armed with a palette knife. This newfound tool in my artistic arsenal allowed me to forge bold, textured strokes and create captivating layers of depth in my work. The vibrant interplay of colors on the canvas became my playground, a place where I could give life to my imagination. Life took an unexpected turn when I pursued higher education in natural sciences at the university in Turin. However, destiny had other plans for me. At the young age of 21, I had to put my academic dreams on hold to shoulder the responsibility of supporting my family. Determined to provide for my loved ones, I embarked on a different path, one that would lead me to unexpected horizons. Now, as I write this, I find myself residing in the enchanting city of Rome. Here, amidst the ancient ruins and vibrant culture, I have donned the hat of a high-speed train driver, ensuring the smooth journey of countless travelers. It's a job that requires precision and focus, but deep within, my heart yearns for the vibrant strokes of my palette knife and the untamed beauty of the canvas. A year ago, a fire was reignited within me—a burning desire to share my artistic creations with the world. I decided to embrace the power of social networks, using them as a platform to unveil my paintings and connect with fellow art enthusiasts. With each stroke of the brush, I dedicate more time to my passion, honing my skills and delving deeper into the depths of my creative soul. My journey as an artist has been a tumultuous one, filled with unexpected detours and unyielding determination. It is through the strokes of my brush that I find solace, expression, and a profound connection to the world around me.
