One is used to thinking of trees and bushes in a forest as motionless elements, planted in the ground, at most moved by the wind. But when you establish an empathetic relationship with nature, everything changes. The warm ground beneath your feet makes you think that in a distant time you too might have had roots. And the trees come towards you as you walk, and move with you. If you turn your gaze 360 degrees, you see the whole forest revolving around you. The trees seem to dance happily. And you dance along with them. I wanted to portray in bright colours and vigorous brushstrokes this magical feeling that I often experience in contact with nature. Created in the studio in August 2023, this painting is a reworking of several studies executed en plein air. The work is painted in oil on rough paper, then applied on 100% linen canvas mounted on a fixed fir frame custom-built by the artist. The signature is in the bottom right-hand corner. The painting is protected by a layer of satin acrylic varnish. The work comes with a thin wooden frame to protect the edges. It is ready to hang. The overall measurements of the framed painting are: centimetres: 50.5 W x 35.2 H x 3.2 D inches: 19.9" W x 13.9" H x 1.3" D The painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. "The dance of the forest" is a faithful translation of the original Italian title "La danza del bosco".

I am an Italian professional artist, born in 1969. I love nature, sunlight, the shadows of trees. I used nature to learn to paint, I discovered nature by painting. My pictorial research on nature began thirty years ago, in the woods of the Tuscan hills. Since then I have created countless studies en plein air, which I rework and synthesize in my studio. I am searching for a quick painting style, in one go and without hesitation, which can convey all the sensations that nature offers me. My goal is to paint pictures that, once hung, are able to irradiate the entire room with light, like a window wide open to nature. And I would like them to return the heat of summer, the frost of winter, the warm wind of spring. I love walking a path and reproducing it in my paintings. The path transforms into an invitation for the viewer to enter the painting. I often think of the path as a life journey, with goals in the distance and experiences left behind. I am in love with grass, ditches and marshes. I am obsessed with narrow "passages" between the bushes of a forest or the reeds of a swamp. I pass through them safely and happily, always imagining I am entering another dimension. My paintings are not simply landscapes. They are compositions that tell stories, moods or situations transfigured in nature. They are prayers, hymns to joy, praises to life. My artworks are notes of the magic that I experience every time I go out to paint, tools to remember it, pretexts to experience it again. As a separate discipline, I am also interested in portraiture, which I have always practised, also on commission. I live and work in my home-studio in Lucca, Tuscany (Italy).
