Description

"It takes a lifetime to learn to live."

                                                                Seneca.


The painting is intended to represent the journey of life symbolically described by the progress of snails as well as by the gradation of colors that passes from the coldest to the warmest.
The slowness of the snails indicates the patience and calm necessary for personal growth, the shells represent resilience understood as a tireless force that allows humans not to fall in the face of obstacles.
The first snail embodies curiosity, the second attention and the third determination, a virtue that I wanted to indicate as the engines of existence.

It is my habit to associate a phrase or an aphorism to my works that enhance their meaning, in this case I entrusted myself to Seneca.

The painting is made with a palette knife and brush, on French canvas, the edges are painted and does not require a frame. If you want to buy an original painting, aesthetically beautiful but which still conveys a thought and contributes to reflection, I think this is a good example.

It is a unique piece with a certificate of authenticity drawn up by myself.
