I paint and create figurative compositions and abstract pieces based mainly on the world of the sea. The ocean is an essential part of my existence. Boats, sailboats, rocks and elements that can be found in the nautical environment. Capes, sails, moorings, … are elements represented repeatedly in my pictorial work. In recent years I have added my protest part, also painting the pollution of the sea. I work with a greater abstraction and I experiment a freer painting.
I like to approach my subjects from a stylistic diversity, which manifests itself in the different collections that I present. I need to express myself in many different ways and to experiment with new forms of communication. It could be said that I have very versatile art and, at the same time, a strong artistic personality. As for materials, I use oils, acrylics and mixed media. Lately I have been working with collages and textures. Whoever knows me thinks about the color blue, although I also use orange and White quite often. I work with a spatula, with brushes and sometimes just my hands.
My painting is the result of experiences of observation, abstraction and meditation. This process inspires me and creates the need to capture my calm vision of the environment, which I then transmit to others, bringing a sense of interest and peace to the viewer, who also needs those moments. At the same time, I would like to be a call to preserve the oceans, our Mediterranean and our seafaring culture, which is the greatest wealth of my native land, because of what it contributes spiritually and unquestionably, as well as economically, although many do not realize that. We must take care of the environment and traditions and value what we still have in order to preserve it.
