ARTIST STATEMENT
I don't really know if I have an artist's statement or style, I don't really see the need. I love painting to music and I never know what I'm doing until I look at a blank canvas, and at that point the colours, music and inspiration hit me, and it all starts to flow.

Art speaks for itself, especially abstract expressionism. Why should I complicate things by explaining on how or why I do what I do?

I paint what I paint based on how I feel, and I try to paint from my heart. I do my best to present movement, emotion, energy, and visual excitement. I never shy away from bold colours. Colour is life! Colours make people feel happy, and happiness is what life is all about!

Abstract painting is easy to approach once you open your mind and have no fear.
I am also a music producer and I do the same when I write a song as when I paint; I start with a blank sheet and then apply musical notes; that's why I paint with music. I paint to sooth my soul.

Antonio Russo.

Education has always been difficult for me. As a child, my family frequently moved and when I was 13 we moved from Sicily to England.
I am heavily dyslexic, colour blind and have a split personality.
