"Praise" Painting

I often refer to my “BC” (Before Children) years when discussing my work. During those years in the professional arena, I discovered inspiration through travel, produced for exhibitions, and prioritized cultivating my skill set. It was a time when my painting process was methodical and focused.

Returning to the studio has forced me to examine how I paint. My style is transforming in parallel to how life itself has been redefined. I mark this present time as “AD” (Anni di Dedizione), dedicated to creating alongside my greatest loves: my daughter and son.

My interest in light, space, and color remains central to my work, with landscape enduring as a primary motif. It encapsulates my desire to reflect God's creation and capture realistic imagery in an expressive way. Currently, I am exploring swift brushstrokes, bold mark-making, and color spontaneity. I have also embraced the palette knife not just for mixing colors, but as a primary instrument for applying paint to canvas, offering a unique visual texture. Overall, my work has grown in expression due to the rapid pace at which I must move to make progress. Ultimately, my objective is to create​. May my works on and off the canvas honor Christ, reflect His light, and offer a prophetic message.
