Artwork description:

“Painted Dream #23” unfolds like a whispered memory of Val d’Orcia at dawn—a ballet of mist and light rendered in soft, horizontal strokes. Hues of pale gold and silvery green blend into whisper-thin bands of lavender and slate, evoking the gentle slopes of Tuscany’s landscapes seen through a half‑closed eye.

The image feels both ethereal and grounded, as if the fields themselves breathe beneath layers of fog and early morning sky.

This abstract composition captures the essence of the region’s rolling hills without a single defined hilltop or cypress tree—yet their presence is felt in each blurred horizon.
The interplay of cool grays and warm ivory suggests a landscape waking to sunrise, while subtle gradients of green recall the patchwork of olive groves and grain fields.

The Tuscan area of Val d'Orcia, in the heart of Italy just south of the beautiful city of Siena, truly stands out for its extremely captivating landscape, so unique and unmistakable that it was officially recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2004.

The universally recognized beauty of Val d'Orcia conveys even more magical images and sensations in the period between late spring and early summer when its gentle and sinuous hills offer an incredible display of light and shadow and color shades at dawn and sunset.

The "Painted Dreams" shots were born in this way, among the most isolated and iconic hills of Val d'Orcia at the first light of dawn or the last glimmers before twilight. These are abstract images not digitally manipulated, but naturally created at the moment of shooting to best capture the emotions experienced in solitude among those silent places on the border between dream and reality.
