Original artwork description:

A seashell, a blue lantern and a lace handkerchief are all joined by large fish hooks, they are small things with great evocative power.
Only those who wish to be carried away by their imagination will be able to find a beautiful story in these objects, just as they arouse it in me.

I made this work on a canvas, treated the background and coloured it with several layers of colour to achieve a unique atmosphere, traced the outline of the painting with chalk and only then did I start painting with oil colours.
I use oil colour by overlaying many thin layers of appropriately diluted colour to create the effects I want.
Once perfectly dry, I finished the surface with a final coat of varnish to make it UV-resistant.

SOSPESI is the series I started painting in 2022, with which I wish to reflect on the suspended moments that life places before us and, through art, overcome the barrier of time, to give value to each moment.

The work does not have a frame but is ready to hang.

The work is signed on the front and back and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
