Here I am! Hi everybody :)
What about me...Well,I'd love to make my living a pleasant and fruitful experience:I have always liked to paint and make drawings, but I never went to any school.
I love to write, and I like to express my soul in as many ways as I can think of...I don't consider myself an artist, though:I just love art. For more about me, just click here and visit my site.BIOI was born in Firenze, 17th of April 1977.
I am fond of everything which celebrates life and humanity:from writing, to painting, to music till sports and nature, all that captures my attention becomes an interest of mine.
If I'd die tomorrow, I would feel my life has been a worthy one already, but for every day that passes, I feel always more curious about it.
To be an artist (although I don't consider myself so,) means to have a personal vision about all that happens, equally outside than inside.For me it means also to try to connect with other's spirits in unexpectable ways and have an endless will of knowledge, and endless will to discover and test yourself and everything else, without fears, but with all possible emotions in the quest, and from the quest.
The world around it's therefore the best inspiration, all that is into it can touch the inner chords of my soul, although I can't say which way till it doesn't happen.And everytime it happens, it's a reveal, a miracle, and the vibes are the best one can feel.
Then sometimes I watch the blue sky, and I give shape to my heart and mind, and I float around... and smile for my live is really like I want it to be.
I have temporarily suspended my career as University Researcher, testing myself as Administrative Manager right now, and I still asking myself if what I got finally was awareness or disillusion, but anyway, it's my attitude to never regret anything that I made consciously.Let's give life a new try.
I am very fond of Foreign Cultures, they enlarge also my artistical perceivement of life, and it's something I find absolutely enriching.
I have never learnt English, so forgive me if I am not good at speaking nor writing it.
I can speak and write in French, I can read Spanish, I know Ancient Latin and Greek.
And of course, I am Italian so, my Mother Tongue has got no mystery for me.
Hooray for Dante! ;)

YES ! That's a really good painting - good feeling, the calm before the storm. And i love Noir Desir (french band as me :) )
juprez
intense painting,i like that le bleu umbrellas,its more expressionistic than impressionistic,guess they r the main theme of it(i would have cut a part of the sky to focus on that)
gallimel
Actually the sky has to be that large in my intention. Also because the previous one I painted for Flowers and Sky was really.. bad styled, and I wanted to ... show i can paint also a certain decent kind of cloudy one ;) Anyway the blue umbrellas were actually. blue umbrellas, nothing expressionistic there :) it was the real colour they had actually :) Thanx also to you Kooala :)

Simply beautiful Meli. This painting is so vibrant and full of life... I want to be there!

Bravo! The composition is wonderful and the colors are beautiful!
tallpindo
What is very good is how you did not fight the difference in plumb between the beach umbrellas caused by the incline of the beach and the true plumb of the vertical edge of the building behind. Like the tilted faces in your portraits this takes a lot of patience and practice. Great lines.

Beautiful work Meli. Great colors and composition. Excellent depth! I love the words to the song and wish that I could hear it with the music. Outstanding work!
Heart'Song
Incredible, to me - my heart hurts a little, but is lifted at the same time. The light is so poignant. Thank you!

Wonderful range of colour. Yes, you have been able to pull off the sense of depth in the sky. At first i was unsure of the pending storm (darkening clouds in the upper right) because it drew my attention away to quickly, but the column of light clouds in the center draws my eyes down to the beach again. Very good use of colour to direct the viewers eye. Well Done! :) retrocity

nagishiva
It has a very powerful effect :) You feel free at one second, then darkness arising right after..and so it goes around and around. Intriguing :) And wonderful.

I find myself wanting to be walking on that beach with no one else around. This image really transports me. Wonderful.
jgeorge
A powerful expressive image! (I like the song very much, and I almost hoped to see a picture connected with it)... Great use of colours! (Now I wish you had seen the lighting and colours I saw from my window yesterday morning!...)
Carolyn
Awesome! :)
lemonjim
this is superb, hats off. it also knocked my socks off! since i'm now unclothed, time for a swim at your wonderful beach! i hope you have access to a large printer, this would be great at large size!
gallimel
I don't need to print it :) I have it on paper, since it's painted :) Thanx for the lovely words again, it's great to know I have suggested some beauty to your minds and hearts. I didn't ask for more than this :) THANX :)
Toulouz
Wow, this has turned out a stunning composition in colour Meli..........magnificent !!!! It's not too disimilar to the effect of the seascapes painted by Eugene Boudin, the French Impressionist imo.
ElPollo
you have a fantastic skill! this is excellent! great contrasts. this pice has some "movement" to it, it seems to be dynamic! I wish I would be able to paint like this - It is not my style but I need it for the academy :)
ffranceschi
Eccellente immagine, Melania! Mi piace moltissimo il tuo cielo ed i tuoi colori!! Mi ricorda la spiaggia di Cecina, dove sono stato molti anni fa. Ottimo anche il disegno e la scelta della poesia di complemento ed accompagnamento dell'immagine! Brava davvero!!! Ciao da Roma!
gallimel
Thanx to Alan, to ElPollo (wow.. it feels great to have you praising one of my works.. and with the colours!!!!Thanx:)) and moreover to Francesco!!!!!! Grazie un miliardo di volte... sono una fanatica dei tuoi lavori!!!!!!!!!!!!!! E' un gigantesco onore avere il tuo nome sotto uno dei miei lavori...sniff :) Grazie!!

This is really gorgeous. The sky and clouds are so well done. It kinda reminds me of Italy again...s-gh- I should go back there soon :) From a distance it looks lo life-like! Oh and as far as the pop tunes are concerned...ehm, well...Generation Y (Why?) likes prefabrictaed teenage taste. Or as i could aslo say it: - The cultural farm Where wealth and concept meat Are forged into standards Which we breathe as the rules we read Maybe one day you could teach me italian, so I could say the following quite proficiently: gradisco il modo il vostro combustibile degli occhi il mio battito cardiaco. :)
gallimel
Ta much to Killer and Synd (do you see someone deleted her rdicolus comment? NOw she's makin abmlober tiresome.. oh, these people living in shadow..)..:P) I don't really get what you would have loved to say in Italian.. but when you like to have teachin lesson, ask me and I am here , and if you'll ever be in Florence, let me know and I'll be happy to show you the town :)Anyway, I put lots of effort in the clouds, i am glad you love them :)
frogman
great colors........strong and vibrant...bright sunny day, but darkness resides on the horizion......hmmmm......very nice work..!!
MadameCurie
I was told about this one the other day, but then I had no time to log in and comment,and moreover I had to save yet my pics I posted before. I am sorry, I should have come and feel immediatly all I do now watching this masterpiece. Definitely your best paint to date.And a great song too.
Royalspikey
Nice Painting, I especially love the way the brooding darkness on the right seems to be stealing light and colour from the scene, good work! :~? En musique francaise, j'aime Louise Attaque!!
gab-mag
You don't stop to amaze me, Meli! My mind can travel and I can Imagine to be there, with this big and imposing sky, a golden beach and no people there, only the silence, broken from the wind... Excellent to me. :-)
Pen_Is_Envy
Meli, je ne sais pas comment m'expresser pour ce pie. Toujours, tu me donne l'inspiration de continuer avec mes dessins, mais celle-ci m'inspire d'apprendre le peinture. Tu ne peux pas comprendre comment celle-ci me rejoint. Merci mille fois!
clemens-k
wonderful painting, Melli! amazing colors and technique. again it reminds me of the impressionism. looks a bit like Rimini ?!
