Emanuele Capozza
"Perché una cosa c'è che è nobile, che è el suo fondamento: e questo è il disegno e tutte quante altre ragioni sono debole rispetto a questo. Vedetelo che chiunque ha questo fa l'una e l'altra bene". (Jacopo da Pontormo)
Emanuele Capozza, a native of Florence, Italy, possesses an innate talent for drawing and art that is deeply ingrained in his family. His great-uncle owned a sculpting and painting Bottega in Florence until 1929, which suggests that artistic ability runs in the family. Emanuele's creative journey began in 2006 when he embarked on the path of material pictures and painting, using plaster, gypsum, and stucco on a wooden table. Over time, he developed his own unique style, fusing traditional techniques with his personal experience. With a deep passion for Italian art, Emanuele learned the ancient technique of fresco painting from several well-known masters in 2012. This technique involves painting on wet plaster, which results in a unique texture and luminosity in the final work. Since 2018, Emanuele has been perfecting the art of drawing from life, which involves capturing the essence of a subject's character and emotions with a pencil and paper. Through his dedication and passion, Emanuele has become a skilled and versatile artist, capable of creating beautiful works in a variety of mediums.
