About this artwork
This miniature was painted with a knife on treated masonite. I’m drawn to the long, narrow format—it feels both expansive and intimate, perfect for capturing the quiet drama of landscape.
These small works often arise between major projects, when I need to step back and let the process become more instinctive. Made from leftover paint, they feel like gifts—unplanned, meditative, and honest. The knife work is minimal but intentional, suggesting land… without overpowering the atmosphere. I wanted the sky to hold space, still, contemplative, and full of breath. Blues dominate—cobalt, ultramarine, a hint of cerulean—while a faint warmth at the centre keeps the piece grounded.
These miniatures are quiet pauses in my practice—moments of reflection without expectation. The title expresses Stillness and liminality, a space between movements or thoughts. My miniatures come framed in a black frame with a glass covering. This one was framed for my 2024 show. I have no other pictures to post.

Though I am creating art, I am evoking an emotion.
That conviction has guided fifteen years of practice. Robert Venafro'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 exclusively with a knife, his self-taught mastery of Impasto produces surfaces that are sculpturesque, tactile, and alive. Expansive oil 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.
Now in his seventh decade, Venafro has arrived at Ipseity, absolute selfhood, hard-earned and uncompromising. Drawing from a life in finance before the brush became his primary language, he brings something rare to the canvas. The story he is painting is his emotion. And yours, to discover. www.venafrobob.com
