Artist directory :: Felice Cipriani Abstract Paintings & DrawingsI am a Painter
I paint abstract, Oil on canvas or linen using a knife, my fingers, and some tricks I have learned in 50 years or more.
I paint my feelings and experiences, good, bad and crazy.
I want to tell a story....through my paintings
About
I am a Painter.. I started drawing at the age of 2,from the age of 6 I wanted to be a painter.From the age of nine I was telling everyone , "I'm going to be a painter." I studied the masters from the age of nine and I still do.
By the time I came to Australia from Italy and started school at St. Georges in Carlton I was 8 and I was drawing very well.I would spend hours in the church copying the beautiful paintings that were there.
As I couldn't speak english my gift of drawing came in very handy , Early on if I didnt have my homework , I would simply do a lovely sketch of the teacher on the day and tell them I'm still learning english.That worked for a while
As a teenager I grew up in Carlton in the late 60's and early 70's
I went to Princes Hill...
