My Master
2026 · Oil on Canvas · 70 x 50 cm
The painting is a warm and vibrant homage to the artist's master, depicted on the right with flowing white hair and a thick beard, wearing a blue jacket and a light blue shirt with a serene, reflective expression. On the left, standing out in sharp chromatic contrast with warm gold and ochre tones, two classical sculptural figures appear to embrace or comfort each other, evoking a deep connection to art and history. In the center, a hand holds up an ancient paper document inscribed with "La Città dei Sassi / Di Caria" along with signatures, highlighting strong cultural and regional roots. The background reveals architectural elements reminiscent of a historic village, topped by a dome beneath a sky filled with thick blue and golden brushstrokes. The artwork beautifully merges personal affection, artistic legacy, and historical memory.
