The world's most pensive squirrel.
Almost all of my portraits are pretty much faceless and somewhat surreal, but many of them has a recurring element of nature and flowers, so I gathered a few of them that tell a deeper story.
A fantastic flower-shaped chandelier to joyfully illuminate your room, or a kitchen island where you can have breakfast while continuing to dream or to hang in that beautiful conversation place with friends and family where you can spend sweet moments of relaxation. This fairy-tale suspension comes from my childhood memories, in my grandmother's enchanted garden where I spent the summer, I fell in love with flowers and colors that today I reproduce with a lot of imagination in my luminous creations! This chandelier is made and hand painted by me in resin, I prepare these petals by modeling them by hand as well as the yellow and orange pistils that decorate the center of the flower and create shades of light; a work of patience that takes about a week to make 56 PETALS one to one, once assembled in this fantastic shape, I model the petals so that they take on a slightly rough natural look! The flower lamp measures 14" (35 cm.) approximately in height for a diameter of 24" (60 cm.), the braided textile cable is white and is approximately 47" (1.20 mts) long, I will send a white rosette to hang it. The lamp holder is E 26/27, use only LED lamps, to take the photos I used an 8.5 W natural light (4000k) LED lamp. (use maximum 13 W) The photos are taken in my outdoor summer laboratory on the mountains of Lake Como, in the city the temperatures are too high to work the resin in a natural way, however, the light is for indoor use only. It can be cleaned by dusting or with a slightly damp cloth. The imaginative lilac and pink flower chandelier will be ready to be shipped FREE of charge in about 10 days. For fast shipping please send me a PHONE number, thank you!

This is a fine art print on high quality Canon Pro Matte paper of my original, surreal oil painting, "From the Mud". I have always loved the concept of the lotus flower growing from the bottom of the pond, through the mud, and with little light until it finally completes its journey to the surface of the water. During the time of creating this painting, I felt completely submerged in mud mentally and emotionally. I wanted to use those emotions as fuel to inspire my way out of that dark place. The woman is in a fetal-like position with body language displaying surrender. Her energy is going towards creating something beautiful - towards making it above the water. And with time, she gradually does. PLEASE READ: Prints 8.5" x 11" have an even 1/4" white border around all edges.
