About this artwork
This oil painting, made with brushes and a palette knife, portrays a young woman immersed in water, caught in a moment of deep introspection. The scene is pervaded by a contemplative and melancholic atmosphere, enhanced by the intense and contrasting color palette. The warm tones of the complexion and shoulders, built with material spatulas and vibrant oranges and reds, blend harmoniously with the deep blues and aquatic greens of the background and…
the reflective surface.
The brushstrokes, free but controlled, create a balance between figuration and abstraction, with a visual play that mixes reality and impression. The texture of the palette knife gives the skin a tactile quality, while the wet hair falls in dark locks on the absorbed face, adding a narrative dimension to the portrait.
A work that speaks of intimacy, vulnerability and quiet, where water becomes a metaphor for interiority.

Monica Catto, a contemporary impressionist painter with 25 years of experience, blends tradition and innovation in works that explore the dynamics between light and shadow. Rooted in family heritage, she works with oil, acrylic and cold wax, applied with brushes, spatulas and rollers to create textures that capture the viewer. Her creations go beyond landscape and portraiture, becoming emotional reflections that invite a deep awareness of urban evolution and the interiority of the human being. Among her most significant works are the "Leonardeschi", permanently exhibited at the Museo Mostra Leonardo da Vinci in Venice, and a collection of landscapes of the city of Desio, exhibited at Banca BPM in Desio. Monica Catto continues to innovate the impressionist language, creating works that speak to the heart and mind.
