"Katia Bellini, Wooded Landscape with Deer" by Katia Bellini
“This painting draws inspiration from Dutch Italianate landscape painting, typically set in woodland with golden light and distant ruins or animals in the foreground. I wanted to explore the difference between traditional and contemporary techniques as well as the tension between abstraction and representation. I used many layers of fine glazes to create an overall warm glow.” - Katia Bellini
