DIVERTIMENTOS COLLECTION
**************************************

Thank you for visiting my art portfolio and considering my work. This portfolio features my mixed media abstract paintings; the original is sold with a white mat - total size 11" x 14". The opening and the actual size of the artwork is 8" x 10".
If you are shopping for home decoration prints - this artwork is also available in a variety of sizes as a print and is also featured on several home goods, lifestyle and personal items.

I created this abstract painting on a watercolor paper with acrylics, inks and watercolors. The painting is accented by black and/or white enamel paint applied in dripping manner which is characteristic for my Divertimento series. I enjoy the drip technique which was frequently used by Jackson Pollock in his action paintings.

Divertimentos – are mine small informal abstract pieces of artwork. They are mostly lighthearted and created to please and amuse viewers, although sometimes they contain peculiar messages and concealing symbols. Most of my divertimentos depict scenery or events encountered during my extensive travels.
Divertimento, as the title suggests, was inspired by the famous Venice’s Carnival. The Carnival takes place in February and it the perfect place to be! Plenty of entertainment around St. Mark’s Square and the adjacent Piazzetta.

I borrowed the term divertimento from music, because I like what it represents: “…an instrumental composition in several movements, light and diverting in character…” and that’s exactly what my visual divertimentos are.
