Light and Shadows
“The subject of my painting is the never-ending game of light
and shadows: they reveal forms and materials, all the individual
expressions. People or building’s characters. Some
modernist could object: “Why painting old-fashion like this?”
I would answer that the light of every century is different. At
the time of Renaissance the light was different. I am a man of
my time. I paint what I see.” Exhibit through February 28,
2018.
