Rose in the garden Painting

Francesca Licchelli is a contemporary artist whose practice is deeply rooted in Realism and Hyperrealism, with a distinctive specialization in Macro-Botanical studies and Still Life. Her art is a meditation on the transient beauty of nature, where the subject is often magnified to reveal otherwise unseen details and textures, creating a powerful visual and almost tactile impact. Francesca's work is characterized by chromatic brilliance and a meticulous mastery of light and shadow. While her signature works are executed in Oil on canvas (such as their recent Neo-Realist florals), the artist is also celebrated for their proficiency in Soft Pastel and Watercolor, utilizing only the finest archival supports, including 100% cotton Fabriano paper and handmade Amatruda Amalfi paper. This versatility demonstrates an unwavering commitment to excellence across all mediums. The focus on contemporary botanical art, which includes lush hydrangeas, camellias, rosebuds, and hyperrealistic lemons, has established Francesca as an emerging voice in the Realism landscape. Her works are not mere representations but intimate explorations of form and color, ideally suited for integration into luxury Interior Design spaces. The artist's work is held in prestigious private collections across the globe, including Europe, the United States, Japan, Australia, and Canada, reflecting the investment value and high demand for their unique approach to contemporary Realism. Francesca works from her studio in Rome. Artist Statement (Brief) "My art seeks to elevate the everyday to the extraordinary. By magnifying flowers and fruit, I transform them into subjects of monumental contemplation. My goal is to unite the technical rigor of classical painting with a modern chromatic sensibility, offering the viewer a renewed perspective on the richness of the natural world."
