### **ARTIST’S NOTE**

\*Tindari Promontory\* captures the sun-washed headland on Sicily’s northern coast, rendered in **Antonino Puliafico’s** unmistakable impasto style. Thick, vibrant knife-strokes build a mosaic of terracotta cliffs, emerald scrub, and cobalt sea, while the sky swirls above in pastel ribbons of peach, aqua, and lavender.

The foreground bursts with coastal vegetation—tufts of sage, ochre, and indigo—creating a lively counterpoint to the tranquil, glassy inlet beyond. Every ridge of paint catches the light differently, so the scene seems to shimmer with Mediterranean heat and salty breeze. Puliafico’s modern-impressionist approach transforms the familiar landscape into a celebration of colour and motion, inviting viewers to feel the crunch of dry grass and hear the gentle lap of waves below the promontory.

Materials used:

First-rate oil colors of the Florentine brand "DI VOLO" applied with spatula were used for the painting, and the pictorial support is a cottono canvas pre-painted for oil painting with Gesso and Glue.
