Description
This acrylic composition captures the solar essence of a lakeside city. The colors express themselves generously. The pink, yellow, and green of the facades rhythmize the perspective. A canal of deep blue guides the eye towards a stone bridge.
Light plays a central role in this figurative scene. It fragments into precise touches, recalling the technique of pointillism. This meticulous work animates the water surface and the mottled sky.
In the foreground, a gondola glides peacefully. The gondolier, wearing a straw hat, steers his boat with serenity. Red flowers overflow from the balconies and adorn the bridge, bringing a vegetal and fresh note.
The contrast between the colored blocks and the small dots of paint creates a visual relief. The whole exudes a sense of clarity and well-being. This 2026 painting emphasizes a taste for Mediterranean landscapes and travel. The final rendering focuses on the luminosity of the pigments and the precision of the architectural details.
Presentation
Catherine Vella is a French painter of Italian origin, whose artistic career spans over thirty years.
After long practicing oil painting, she now works mainly with acrylics. Her universe is characterized by a generous use of color, light contrasts, and a constant search around light and emotion. Her work evolves between two complementary expressions: figurative painting with blocks of bright colors and a more meticulous approach inspired by pointillism. She explores various subjects—Mediterranean landscapes, human figures, animals, flowers, and scenes evocative of travel—while maintaining a personal visual identity. Painting occupies a central place in her life today. Her works have been presented at exhibitions and have joined private collections in France as well as abroad
My painting is above all guided by color, light, and emotion. I seek to create living and luminous works, capable of conveying a positive sensation while leaving room for sensitivity and imagination. I work mainly with acrylics, sometimes with flat blocks of color, sometimes with a technique close to pointillism which allows me to build light through a multitude of colored touches. Through landscapes, figures, animals, or scenes inspired by elsewhere
