The process of fresco is like no other, it is by far the most unique and rare process to be apart of and I haven’t found another medium to compare quite as closely as fresco. Buon fresco is an amazing and long lasting art form, lasting over centuries if done right its relation to water color is like no other, from the use of inorganic pigments to the creation of the lime plaster.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration by looking at Diego Riveras past frescos and walking through the bosque here in my hometown of Albuquerque New Mexico, we have a vibrant wild life here with great trails to walk through, I find walking through nature and taking in the elements around calms my mind. My city is definitely an art city we support artists and encourage public murals, often is nice to walk through downtown to see past murals of other artists and take in the creativity of artists before me.
