Nina Pettinato, 2020 · acrylic on canvas · 60 × 50 cm

Work at a Glance
A small-format acrylic painting on canvas, created in 2020 using broad, textured brushstrokes and dense, flowing layers of color.

How to Read the Painting?
Deep wine red, glowing orange, and warm sandy beige nestle against one another like the final hours of a long summer day – heavy, lush, and filled with a quiet glow. An electric blue runs through the composition as a luminous accent, awakening the senses like a cool breath of wind before they sink completely into the warmth. The large, rounded forms evoke a nearby celestial body that holds both light and shadow within itself – at once close and unfathomable.

Who is this Painting for?
'Sun' is an intimate, powerful work that, with its radiant warmth, bathes even the coolest room in a luminous glow – perfect for anyone who wishes not merely to see color, but to feel it.
