Paternuosto is an expert and protagonist of the revival of the beautiful contemporary technique of Encaustic painting. His artistic and cultural interests revolve around the art of ancient Rome and the Roman Empire, Pompeian mural art, and the famous Greco-Egyptian portraits of Fayum. He is considered "the Maestro of Encaustic painting" according to the accredited Italian newspaper: Corriere della Sera. He was defined as "an exceptional artist" by Costanzo Costantini on the Roman newspaper 11 Messaggero, Costantini is an art critic and biographer of: Manzù, Guttuso, De Chirico, Visconti, Fellini, Balthus, Minorai, Mastroianni etc. Again, according to journalist Costantini: "Paternuosto is the most interesting and singular artist I've met in the last ten years who showcases Encaustic paintings of rare preciousness, for the beauty of the figures, the chromatic splendor and stylistic refinement . " He has been mentioned by: the German TV ZDF and RAI, TG3, TLT news and Tele Molise, specialized magazines and Italian and international newspapers: Archeo, Viva Archeology, il Messaggero, Corriere della Sera, BBC History. As well as being mentioned by experts such as Claudio Strinati, Pico Cellini, Umberto Pappalardo, Vittorio Sermonti, L. Ripa of Meana, Mariarosaria Spadaccino Even the great LEONARDO DA VINCI tried his hand at Encaustic painting to outclass his rival MICHELANGELO on the great frescoes for the Palazzo Vecchio of FLORENCE, however LEONARDO probably failed the execution process for Encaustic painting, using braziers instead of the Cauterii. The Cauteri are metal tools required to carry heat on the wax painting. Thus, the work of the Battle of Anghiari is lost and with it so is the SCHOOL OF THE WORLD. Paternuosto is one of the last Italian painters to preserve the most beautiful and complete pictorial technique of all time.. The maestro of encaustic painting skillfuly paints on fresh plaster while it's wet, on marble, wood, paper, canvas and cotto tiles , using colors that are difficult to use on frescos such as: cinnabar, ivory black, vermilion, alizarin, titanium white among others.
