The colour of water

For the past decade Consalvo has been painting the coastal landscape which provides him with endless possibilities and continues to challenge him in new ways. He is currently painting with gouache, having previously worked in oils. The landscape allows him to re-connect with nature and forces him to slow down amongst his normally busy lifestyle. Painting becomes a ritual.

“I work using my accumulated experience, I paint the movement, light, colour and mood of the area I am in. It’s a balanced dance to and from adding to a wave, sculpting the space around a rock or explaining the transparency and movement of the incoming or outgoing tide. Nothing is static…this is not still life. The water is moving, the light is changing and you have to finish before you get washed off the rock.” Dino Consalvo
