About this artwork
ARRIVEDERCI, painting from the series, “The Tears of Sicily”
Have I recovered after my car accident? Yes, I have, but these left and forgotten and sad houses on Sicily, not.
You should come one day to see them and listen to their stories. They might tell you much more, what did not tell to me.
As I was driven to the Airport leaving back to the US, I was enjoying scenes of beautiful Sicily. Then I saw one more house with no roof, just having the beam… on top. All scenery was moving including an electric pole with no wires. It kept moving until the moment when the beam of the house and that pole come together making an illusion of the cross. I shut the window and I did not look out until the Airport in Catania.

« Oils are rich instruments. Like the instruments of an orchestra, you can use one in a solo performance or all in a symphony of color. »
Ivan A. Tomicic is a painter and sculptor based in the United States whose works have been exhibited nationally, in France, Austria, and Italy. His artistic practice takes two distinct forms of expression through the use of oils and watercolors. Tomicic believes that if "oils are an orchestra then watercolors are the classical guitars or a blues harmonica". One of his favorite themes is America's Wild West, which captured his imagination as a child and continues to do so.
