Undergrowth Painting

I introduce myself in this context by timidly peeping out, being reserved in expressing in words what my gestures and the use of color want to express. My approach to art was instinctive; I felt the need to experience my creative abilities both in the sculptural field, through the working of clay, and in the pictorial field. My sculptures are the expression of harmony and an introspective research that is revealed through figuration. A gesture, a reference, a reflection or contemplation take shape in a young woman, a child. Plastic art contains within itself a very gratifying aspect, that is, the sensation of creating something that takes life and shape from your hands, becoming a "speaking" entity that communicates and evokes emotions to its viewer-interlocutor. It is the pleasure of handling clay, a ductile material that is well suited to the project and the expectations of those who work it ... I also expressed myself in the pictorial field. Nature fascinates me. I find the chromatic range of the flowers wonderful. The themes that I love to portray can be floral close-ups executed with a brush in a realistic way; or glimpses, painted with a palette knife, with garden blooms in an intimate climate, where light and the contrasts of vivid colors interchange. In using the spatula, I found a certain familiarity with the gestures I use in modeling clay and that gratified me in the drafting of the pictorial mass.
