In this evocative painting, Dora Kalinova masterfully brings to life the rainy streets of Milan. The Milan Cathedral stands as a stoic backdrop while people, clad in rain gear, navigate the wet pavement, contributing a dynamic sense of movement and daily life. Through the use of an expressionistic style, rich textures, and a weathered palette, the artist conveys the timeless beauty and resilience of the historic structure against the elements. Layers of grunge and rough textures give the scene an aged, vintage appeal, making viewers feel the very atmosphere and the spirit of rainy Milan.
I am a contemporary painter, I mainly use oil colors and palette knife. My technique, which ranges from bold brushstrokes to layered colors, aspires to create an image determined by the viewer's visual memory and emotional states. My works, imbued with coherence and harmony, evoke an intense sensitivity and a personal vision of the beauty of life. I am inspired by impressionism and always looking for new technical experiences; I try to create balance between colors, involving viewers in the artistic scenes.
