ARTIST’S NOTE
In “The Sisters,” Antonino Puliafico presents a majestic mountain range rising into a swirl of vibrant sky. Thick palette knife strokes define peaks and clouds alike, merging into a dance of purples, blues, and soft whites. The foreground, dotted with brilliantly hued foliage, amplifies the composition’s energy, suggesting a spirited transition from the calm valley to the lofty summits.

This bold juxtaposition of cool and warm colors emphasizes nature’s constant state of motion—clouds passing overhead, winds stirring the trees, and a landscape in flux. Puliafico’s distinctive technique marries impressionistic subtlety with expressionistic intensity, creating a dynamic scene that breathes with life and possibility.

“The Sisters” speaks to the grandeur and unity of the mountain peaks, inviting viewers to contemplate the profound connection between land and sky.

Materials used:

First-rate oil colors of the Florentine brand "DI VOLO" applied with spatula were used for the painting, and the pictorial support is a cottono canvas pre-painted for oil painting with Gesso and Glue.
