I just love the opportunity to create something unique. I enjoy the process of creating paintings as it makes me truly feel alive.

I am an eclectic artist whose practice is driven by exploration across subject matter and medium. My work moves fluidly between landscape and still life, with a particular focus on florals, where I examine the relationship between structure, colour, and organic form. While grounded in traditional painting, my approach extends into screen printing and collage, allowing me to introduce layering, repetition, and material texture into my compositions.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from a range of sources, including landscapes, floral still life, and the textures of urban environments. I am particularly drawn to found materials, collecting weathered advertisements from walls in Sicily, Rome, and Florence. These layered surfaces, marked by time and decay, inform my work and connect it to memory, place, and lived experience.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to grow our art school called Biagini’s Colours where we teach our painting style to children from the age of 6 to seniors as young as 100. We have inspired so many people in our community to paint and this money would allow us to provide more opportunities to those financially challenged.
