About this artwork
This work represents my first exploration of Japanese-inspired brush painting, created in oil on acid-free treated cardboard. The inspiration arose from a chance encounter where I saw a disciplined practitioner of painting in ink, and the restraint intrigued me. I sought to translate that spirit into oil — blending Eastern quietude with my own expressive approach.
The brush marks carry a meditative slowness, in contrast to the speed of my palette… knife work. Yet the underlying theme of Ipseity remains: the search for selfhood, the acceptance of change, and the dialogue between memory and perception. At seventy-five, I trust that collectors will find in this work a balance of familiarity and renewal.
Framed under glass in a black floating frame, the painting rests gently elevated from its backing, inviting both contemplation and personal interpretation.
This is one of four that I will be posting. You may want to acquire any one of these first four.
Though I am creating art, I am evoking an emotion. This has guided fifteen years of practice. Bob's work prioritises the felt experience over representation, capturing atmospheric depth that moves between tranquillity, longing, and awe. You do not simply look at these paintings. You enter them. Working with a knife, his self-taught mastery of Impasto produces surfaces that are sculpturesque, tactile, and alive. Expansive paintings and intimate miniatures share the same driving force, a sense of place that is as much interior as it is geographical. Landscapes and seascapes become the language. Emotion is what they say. In his seventh decade, Venafro has arrived at Ipseity, absolute selfhood, hard-earned and uncompromising. Drawing from a life in finance before the knife became his primary language, he brings something rare to the canvas. The story he is painting is his emotion. And yours, to discover. I'm discontinuing my signature on the front of the work. www.venafrobob.com
