Artwork Description

"Southern Horizon" captures the breathtaking beauty of an Australian sunrise or sunset, where the meeting point of sky and sea becomes a spectacle of color and light. The painting is a celebration of nature's grandeur, showcasing the vivid hues of dawn or dusk in the vast expanse of the Australian coastline.
At the top of the canvas, the sky dominates with a riot of colors – shades of pink, red, orange, and magenta blend seamlessly, creating a mesmerizing display of light. The colors streak across the canvas, imbued with warmth and energy, evoking the fleeting moments of a vibrant sunrise or the lingering glow of a fiery sunset.
As the viewer's gaze descends towards the bottom of the painting, the intensity of the colors gradually softens, giving way to the serene blues of the ocean.
The blues deepen and shift in tone, capturing the depth and vastness of the sea, as it stretches out to meet the horizon.
Throughout the composition, there's a sense of harmony and balance, as the vibrant colors of the sky harmonize with the tranquil blues of the ocean. The painting invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the beauty of the natural world, evoking a sense of awe and wonder at the majesty of the Australian landscape.
"Southern Horizon" is more than just a depiction of a sunset or sunrise – it's a testament to the power and beauty of nature, a reminder of the profound connections between land, sea, and sky, and a celebration of the fleeting moments of beauty that grace our world each day.

Artist Bio

I am a selftought artist. Born in Italy and living in the most beautiful country: Australia.
Accountant by day, artist and sport addict the rest of the time. Veganism advocate, animals and ocean lover. In love with Australia beaches, sunsets and sunrises. Australia has been my dreamland since 2011 and recently I realised that unconsciously I reflect my love for Australia in some of my painting. All the vivid and joyful colours remind me of the ocean, the sun, and the landscape in Australia paradise.
Before painting I was colouring Johanna Basford books and my friends were always amazed by how I could combine and choose colours. How I could focus on some details and have the passion to color even the smallest one. The secret is that I don’t choose the colours, the colours chose me and guide me into creating something. When I start a new painting I stare at all my colours and without any thoughts I let the energy of the colours flow and guide me into the next creation.
When I moved to Australia I decided to try creating some art; I started with thick paper first, then moved to small canvas and now I work with every size of canvas. I went from acrylic only, to impasto technique and gesso. When I finish a work I look at it and I like to think that I created something unique, that there is no single piece in the whole world like mine and that one day someone will have exactly that painting decorating his/her wall. And most of the time I think I create cool stuff 🙂 and is extremely rewarding to know that someone feels something by looking at my paintings.
When I feel that something is not how I would like it to be I edit it until I am fully satisfied with the result.
In a perfect world I would like to keep working as an accountant and opening a little gallery where I can expose and sell all my paintings.
