Hi everyone ! I am excited to share with you the work of Italian artist, Elisabetta Trevisan. She was born in 1957 in Merano, a town in northern Italy, bordering on Austria. She attended the art school of Padua and her father is a famous illustrator and cartoonist.
"I have always devoted myself mainly to painting.
My artworks are realized using medium density panels on which I work mixing
different techniques; gouache, pastel, water colour. I also decorate on
backed clay, glass, wood, fabrics, mural surfaces and self-made
Papier-maché objects. Moreover, I have contributed as an illustrator to
many magazines, illustrated a children book on ecology in collaboration
with Ente Parco Fiume Sile, painted a collector's pack of tarot ed. Lo Scarabeo – Torino, realized settings for animated films for the television."

Klairi Angelou writes:
"Elisabetta Trevisan, inspired by the Renaissance and the Pre-Raphaelites
with their infamous depiction of female figures in interior and exterior
environments, has created a stunning oeuvre dominated by women with
beautiful hair styles and flowing fabrics."

You can find her in Facebook.
Our
challenge is to write a new poem or prose poem or flash fiction (250
words limit) based on the work & theme (women) of Elisabetta Trevisan. If you
upload her image/s in your writing, please acknowledge the name of the
artist and link to her site. She has expressed interest in our work
and I will be sending her the link after we have completed our
challenge. I will be checking in during the week to see if anyone else
has linked up.
Wishing you all Happy Weekend ~ Grace (aka Heaven)
Wow! Her work is amazing, Grace! Many thanks for putting this feature together.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure many toads are rolling up their sleeves. I expect some incredible poetry for this prompt.
Grazie, Elisabetta.
Thank you Kerry ~ Her paintings are beautiful & I look forward to reading everyone's words ~
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend to all ~
Here is a very little bit to give for such an incredible picture--but it came to me in a flash and insisted on being posted.
ReplyDeleteWow...she's amazing...thank you Grace, for featuring Elisabetta!
ReplyDeleteSusan and Hannah ~ I am blown away by your responses ~ Thank you ~
ReplyDeleteVery cool, Grace. Thanks for the introduction to Ms. Trevisan's unique work. I have resurrected, rewritten and revised an older poem not previously published at Verse Escape that was forcibly called to mind by the artwork called Chimera. I hope this falls within the guidelines.
ReplyDeleteI love the depth infused with her works of art. The soothing colors tie in beautifully with her talent!
ReplyDeleteThank you Grace for sharing her with us~
HW - Thank you for sharing it with us ~ It's beautifully written ~

ReplyDeleteElla, her colors are amazing ~
ReplyDeleteCheryl & De, thanks for your lovely words ~
I am seeing my oldest daughter back to college on Sunday. I will link to this challenge hopefully on Monday! Thanks - what gorgeous images
ReplyDeleteAn interesting artist indeed, Grace. I can easily see her style as background for an animated cartoon (one of my brothers has an animation studio) and I can also see her work complementing Hedgewitch's, although I haven't read anyone else's because I haven't posted yet.
