About me
Damiano Merlin ©
Born in Monselice, in the province of Padua (Italy), on 9 September 1970.
He attended the Barbarigo Episcopal Institute in Padua and subsequently graduated in Architecture in 1997 at the IUAV in Venice; the architect Sebastiano Serlio, his master of choice, inspired his artistic activity, in fact he has been working as an artist since 1999; at the same time he works as an architect at the A.t.e.r. of Padua.
Passionate about art since he was a child, he began, as a self-taught, to experiment with watercolor techniques, inspired by Joseph Mallord, William Turner, Edward Lear, John White and Lorenzo Dotti.
He continues his research by reproducing copies of author's paintings, spending a lot of time making copies of artists such as Durer, Rembrandt, Goya and Ribera, in order to be able to absorb the passages of color and chiaroscuro that he tries to reinterpret in his paintings he.The Sea with its sailing ships and climate change are the pillars of the artist's creative process but his talent allows him to move with versatility and effectiveness from one pictorial technique to another, representing subjects of various kinds such as: landscapes , animals, abstracts and many more.
