Aperitivo
c. March 2012
Oil on linen, fine weave canvas, 50x35 cm
Under Guidance of Jered Woznicki
My final project at Angel Academy in Florence, Italy, following almost two years of study. I faced a number of challenges in completing this painting, notably the strict time constraints resulting from the perishable nature of the items. The olives would continuously change in colour and texture, becoming unrecognisable, withering and blackening in a matter of hours under the intense Florentine climate.
