Description from the seller
Aries constellation
Homage to Leonardo da Vinci.
A small quirky attempt to present my version of the constellations, paying homage, in my own way, to one of my favorite painters in each of them. A little creative game!
The choice to associate the Aries sign with Mona Lisa's enigmatic smile is not a coincidence for me, but is deeply rooted in my childhood and in a deeper connection with the constellation itself. As a child, this masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci was the painting that captured my imagination more than any other, hypnotizing me with its mystery and timeless aura.
The reason I associated the Mona Lisa with Aries lies in some qualities that, in my perception, connect the painting and the zodiac sign. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, symbolizing beginnings, vitality, boldness, and pioneering strength. The Mona Lisa, for me, surprisingly embodies these characteristics. It is a work that marked a new beginning in Renaissance art, an audacious innovation in portraiture with her direct gaze and elusive smile that always seems to hide something new to discover. There is an almost primordial strength in her expression, a silent vitality that makes her eternal and omnipresent, just like the untameable and avant-garde energy of Aries.
Painted with high-quality Italian colors on cotton canvas, mounted on a wooden frame. The painting is painted on the sides. Comes with an authenticity certificate. Painted with semi-gloss transparent varnish to protect it from weather and UV rays. Slight color variations may occur due to differences between the brightness of your PC or phone screen and the actual painting. Please take this into account.
Fast and secure shipping with tracking in a carefully packed wooden crate with bubble wrap. For shipments outside the European Union and Switzerland, the shipment will experience a few days of delay due to customs certification retrieval.
Seller's Story
Veronica Ciccarese was born in 1972 in Mesagne, Italy.
Since childhood she has shown a keen interest in painting and drawing. Over the years he continues his passion with severe self-taught studies and in artistic workshops. In the beginning it was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite movement and then got lost in paintings of silent, emotional and intimate female figures. His women are full of often unspoken feelings, expressed exclusively by sensual movements or direct gazes. He successfully knows the online art auction market thanks to which many works are sold all over the world hosted in private collections in the United States, Belgium, Holland, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, France etc. So that at the age of 50 she finally leaves her traditional job to have the opportunity to devote herself full time to painting and live exclusively on art, she follows her true path and does what makes her truly happy. A life decision! Through the use of body language, he focuses the viewer's gaze on the subject, leading him to scrutinize the painting with impunity without many visual distractions, immediately placing it in an intimate relationship with it.
His eyes turn every single image they see into painting. Its visual reality is made up of continuous paintings. The art is in his eyes. Speak through colors ... It is the only way to convey what you feel and what is inside you.
Artistic training
He enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in Lecce but did not finish his studies due to family vicissitudes. Nonetheless, he continues his self-taught studies full time.
Over the years he has followed the advice and lessons of artists and masters such as the Maestro
D'Addario, the artist Angioletta de Nitto, the Maestro Igli Arapi and the artist Jara Marzulli, attending courses and workshops in their artistic studios.
Themes
The core of his
inspiration is the human figure. He mainly produces female subjects. All time
the more he moves away from the likelihood of the model's outward appearance looking for
to transfer the soul of the person who portrays to the canvas, leaving the imagination free
viewer about what the painting is communicating to him. He wants to create an intimate relationship
between the viewer and the subject. Through the use of pose, body language and
mood, focuses the viewer's gaze on the subject so that he can
allow yourself a pure emotional reaction.
