One particular piece of this work appeals to me. about 3/4 from the left the yellow acrylic starts to melt or droop into an area of black acrylic. Speaking from experience, I have found it quite difficult to control the way my acrylics melt from one area of color to another. You have demonstrated a mastery over your medium in the way you controlled this area.
Another fascinating element is the yellow-green area below the melting white acrylic. I have a deep appreciation for the way acrylics transition from one state to another and what you have done in this area particularly appeals to me. Wether it was pre-planned or not, I have to acknowledge the beauty of the white acrylics melting downward onto the soft curve of emerald that is your blending of green and yellow, Mr. Zampedroni.
The gentle curve of emerald is not the only mesmerizing expanse of green in this work. The field of green transitioning to yellow that droops downward onto the area of black (as mentioned in the first paragraph) is a gorgeous sight. You have efficiently bound this area of glistening emerald with the more or less "T" shaped yellow geometric shape. The yellow makes it easier for me to transition between your different tones of green.
I would be doing your work an injustice if I failed to acknowledge the importance or the organic white shape. Because it is the brightest element on your canvas, it is the first thing I read. The way that the white drapes and melts down on itself is a stunning sight to behold. I find it interesting how this is the only element on your canvas that possess this type of "melting". Not only does the melting texture of this element make it unique, but it augments the beauty of everything around it by offering a contrasting texture. I quickly noticed the lovely interacting between the white and emerald, not only by the contrasting color but by very distinct difference in the texture of white and the implied texture of emerald.
In this art appreciators opinion, one of the most playful or eye-catching elements of this work is the predominantly orange section of this work in the lower right-hand corner. The delicate orange lines leads me to wonder how large this work is. The intricate lines would be hard to apply on a smaller canvas of 8"x12", but would be quite impressive on a larger canvas. I do not often consider orange and green to be a pleasant combination of color but you have presented these colors in such a way Mr. Zampedroni, that I do not feel disgusted. To the contrary, I am enthralled with the interaction between these two colors. Perhaps it is because you present the majority of the green in a gentle diagonal curve that I do not feel the the bolder green does not dominate the lighter orange.
In conclusion, this work demonstrates your mastery over your medium and gently guides my eye from one element to another. This work very clearly defines itself as a non-objective abstract-expressionist work. Your choice of colors and the way in which they interact without blending together is quite inspiring to a fellow abstract artist. Mr. Zampedroni, I look forward to critiquing more of your work in the future.
