Artwork Description

“Ti amo,” an endearing term that translates to “I love you” in Italian.
The Vespa that sparked a global phenomenon, the classic 1951 Vespa 125 Faro Basso mod. 51. This scooter defined Italian style and captured the hearts of an entire generation and became a cultural icon. Gliding through the cobblestone streets of Rome co-starring alongside Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck in the unforgettable 1953 movie “Roman Holiday”. It speaks of carefree youth, freedom and a world where romance and adventure are always just a twist of the throttle away. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Artist Bio

My True Love.
Generally my style of art is Representational – realistic stuff, anything that has a strong recognisable subject. Sometimes however I abandon my fine art lured by my previous life as a graphic designer and momentarily I'm overcome and revert to the use of minimalist shapes, images and bright colours.
Being an impatient individual, I prefer to work with acrylics rather than other mediums because of their quick drying time. This allows me the flexibility to make mistakes, knowing that I'm able to quickly correct and paint over them.
As an artist I usually I start with a pencil sketch in my painting diary. I don't necessarily paint it straight away, but often visit the diary as inspiration for future work. My true love is the challenge of capturing the the things and sights that have inspired me on my travels around and about.
