Reflection in the Eyes (Riflesso negli occhi)

Set against a coastal backdrop, this artwork explores the psychological portrait through the atmospheric and transparent qualities of watercolor. The piece is part of a series inspired by an artistic Italian muse, capturing the profound cultural awakening resulting from this connection. The technical focus centers on the meticulous execution of dappled sunlight on the subject’s skin and swimwear. This play of light is utilized not merely as an optical effect, but as a psychological tool that mirrors an internal state of clarity and creative immersion. Academic precision is thus balanced with a conceptual approach, where light becomes a primary structural element.
