Piccinelli used a very high quality acrylic paint (for artists) to create this canvas. With this work he evokes the soft shades of gray of winter. The drawing in the center of the composition is made with a very pigmented ink with high light resistance.Beauty in simplicity: Winter is often associated with a certain austerity; but this can be seen as a beauty in itself. Likewise; the winter nuances in our lives can remind us that simplicity; reducing distractions; and focusing on what matters can be a source of beauty and clarity. As winter invites us to stay indoors and reflect; winter nuances can encourage introspection; self-exploration and inner growth. It is a time when we can reconnect with our values and aspirations.
