Hi everyone! I’m Valentina, I’m 28 years old and I live in Vicenza, Italy. Three cats are also living with me: Mou, Mirtilla and Mr. Piumino.
I studied at the Art School in my town, where I had the possibility to study drawing and painting techniques. A few months ago, after taking a break from painting, I took an old canvas, some paintbrushes and three acrylic colors; I started a drawing composed of geometric forms and after one hour I realized that those forms would become cats. CATS! My other big passion; I love them from when I was a child but I had never portraits them.
With the precious collaboration of Mou, Mirtilla and Mr. Piumino, I started to paint the first coat of my painting; then I added some forms in a darker color to characterize the cats and their furs. Finally I drew the black lines that defines the figures. So, this is how “Le Gattele” was born, an art project of simple, geometric forms, where every subject has an own personality. Each cat has a funny grumpy face to represent their adorable character.
