Visions of Italy by Rita Monaco


Rita Monaco I live in Vancouver, Canada, and I am a mother, wife, painter, teacher, cook, and gardener, in order of importance. Sometimes, this order is shuffled around a bit…but generally, I try to keep things in perspective.

I was born in Italy and I return to it once a year.

My origins and my travels through this beautiful country that I left long time ago… influence most of the images in my work.

My painting, especially the pastel landscapes and some of the still lifes, reflect the coloring, warmth and the particular quality of light that I find in the fields, the farms, the narrow streets of Italy.

I am pleased to share with you, my vision of Italy, and I hope that these paintings will communicate to you part of the pleasure that I feel in discovering the more humble and common sights, bathed in the most incredible Mediterranean light and color.

Painting is remembering, painting is sharing, and painting is …my way of life, my work, and my passport to sanity and fulfillment.
