After the achieved studies, he worked in the field of commercial art devoting parallel to drawing, painting on different media (glass, wood, iron, clay, canvas, cardboard, etc ..) feeding a marked sensitivity for the detection of architectural forms, also He inspires a deep poetic wake that shines not only in his poems but also in his paintings. Already earlier a child shows great sensitivity and mastery of color and drawing skills, surprising teachers and the public for the expressive and dynamic talent. The painting by Nancy Avellina started at a very young age, even before attending their studies and take trips, closed within the walls of a room flows out impulses that affect in his paintings became the flame that ignites the soul rebel who wants to emanate from walls that hold it captive. She obsessively seeking the perfection of nature, the architectural elements, the subjects that captures such as photographs, designating an animated color actually turned on and enchanted by a magical atmosphere which reflected the poetic spirit. The first collection, from several works, stands out the large canvas entitled "The Landscape of Dreams" where reality merges into a purely romantic dream, illusion, where the perceptual reasons along with those of the heart are both affected by a strong pictorial chromaticity which makes the landscape dynamics, harmony and attraction. The Artist traveling between Rome, Florence and Paris is particularly attracted by the academic Renaissance painting, the hidden wonders in the Vatican City and its historical monuments specimens, which by French Impressionists Renoir and the Macchiaioli, Italian verismo which dominates the color stain that creates contrast and brightness. Thus it manages to blend his own style chiaroscuro unifying and splashes of color, minute details and reliefs, creating a pristine contrast of light and shadows that intersect each other. She communicates well the only one with his painting and poetry became the main purpose to overcome the worries of life and the potential means of expression to communicate the deepest emotions, the dark path buried in the heart, the soul and the source of love bliss and happiness. In fact in his paintings reflected the harmony of color, light, shadow, dominated the technical quality, the unspoiled beauty of a mystical reality and unmistakable in its style, or in his poems reveal a rhythmic dance, harmonious and sensual free and light verses like music penetrate deep in the soul; << Fact as stated by Enza Conti director of the newspaper the "Banquet", it is this part of his ego that makes his painting charge of emotions, in a combination of the two languages, as in his painting to communicate is the color, while in his poems is the word: a constant dialogue that gives voice to the deepest emotions. And his works as "The mill on the lake" (main cover of the book "The key to living"), is the manifestation of his stylistic research that pushes the viewer to contemplation of a landscaped corner, where it seems that time has stopped. It is an art that becomes the expression of a passion, a feature that transforms his paintings in paradisiacal images, where peace is the prerequisite element of contemplative wonder. Enza >> Conti. The stylistic research of its representations is constantly changing spacing from one subject to another, impressing on the canvas his emotions, studied and contemplated thereby designating an enigmatic reality, evolutionary, enlivened by bright colors, which goes beyond the boundaries of reality, of ' man and his becoming, where it remains the order of the elements, the force of the water, in a peaceful and uncontaminated atmosphere.

ARMONIE
critical of Mary De Michele Note
<< Through a deliberate formal simplification of the elements, built with skill, the artist retains the style uniform way, shareholders and unit highlighting the color, lively, intense and material. The landscape, desecrated from the grip of technicality, it is retrieved, giving rise to hope. "The calm after the storm" (G.Leopardi), archaic and obsolete words but very effective tool to evoke the poetic feelings aroused by the artist Nancy Avellina works. Predominate in blue palette that cheer the heart of man by keeping it away from anxieties and fears. The content of the paintings hanging in the natural order reveal that Earth is direct descendants of the gods and that the cosmos was created to give man a happy life. The absolute artistic maturity allows Nancy Avellina to speak in plain language, undocked from trivial and naive influences. The color of molded and forged vividly captures the nature of tones force. Paintings like "The Dawn Treader," "The Return of the Galleon" highlight the perennial contrastarsi and arrange the elements, sea, sky, earth, like life in its continuous development, needing harmony. The works reveal skill and passion, steeped in metaphysical atmospheres that emphasize the narrative quality contemporary fashion, a return to origins through the recovery of figuration. Serene and linear works by Nancy Avellina reveal the ethical conscience of the mission of painting. A painting with broad brushstrokes, fluid and pasty, evidence of mastery of their feelings, looking at these blue expanses back to my memory the poems of Giuseppe Ungaretti: "This morning I am lying / in an urn of water / and as a relic / I rested". Paintings that celebrate the water ritual, "Mill on the lake," a stretch of water that tickles the imagination, ideal landscape for a tale by Andersen, Thumbelina, The Wild Swans. Artist's unconscious desire to live life like a fairy tale. Maria De Michele >>
