Carnival of Venice
I was asked to present a mural design for the outside wall facing the ocean with a long wooden deck. I thought it would be great to have it as if you were looking into a building with a party going on. And of course, being Italian it had to be a Carnival of Venice party. The mural job fell threw but I still had this great drawing. Then about twenty years, later two art styles collided. I was working on the notion that art can be made out of anything, I flashed on the mural drawing that would be the perfect destination for all materials that I had been collecting. Art can sometimes take a long time to happen.

The full collection consists of 12 pieces.

A unique series of mixed media painting based on the masks and costumes of the Carnival of Venice.
Medias used are gold, silver and copper leaf. Fabrics and appliqués made of sequins and jewels.
