AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lotus Pond with Koi

Pale blossoms of white and blush lotus rise above broad, layered lily pads rendered in sweeping strokes of sage, emerald, and olive. Beneath the misty, luminous water surface, koi fish drift in fluid clusters, their orange, white, and coral scales captured with confident, loose impasto marks. A soft haze of celadon and pearl grey fills the open water, lending the scene an ethereal, dreamlike calm that evokes quiet contemplation at the water's edge.

Size: 60 x 160 x 2.5 cm (H x W x D)
Stretched on wood and ready to hang!

- 100% hand-painted; unique piece

About Stefano

Stefano is an Italian contemporary artist whose signature palette-knife impasto fuses impression with abstraction, drawing modern landscape into the realm of feeling. Working in layered oils, he builds terrains of light and texture where color, movement, and emotion collide-ridges catch the sun, scraped passages breathe, and horizons are implied rather than described.

Born in Milan and now based in a small town in the countryside, he draws equally on urban momentum and rural quiet. His process is physical and rhythmic: mixing dense pigments, laying and lifting paint, and letting the knife score and glide so that time remains inscribed on the surface. City lines loosen into gesture; meadows turn into chromatic tides.

Stefano's canvases open a conversation between reality and imagination, between memory and place. He turns recollection into motion and places into sensation, inviting viewers to linger, wander, and recognize themselves in the shifting distance.
