Working with a multitude of materials and techniques, Canadian artist Pietro Adamo produces abstracts both emotive and energetic. He achieves detailed shapes, textures and dimensions by layering modeling pastes, gel mediums, silica sand, stucco plaster, acrylic colors, oil veneers and washes, as well as his own silk-screened photos. Before fulfilling his lifelong dream to become an abstract painter, Adamo was an art professor and painter of realistic landscapes and politician portraits.
