Oil on Canvas, Collage & Assemblage
It is clear in Angela Ferraro's work that she has a passion for the human face and for capturing the spirit and essence of her subjects in her paintings. Classically trained in Tennebrismo Technique, she is able to invoke emotion and intrigue in the viewer through extraordinary rendering of detail and use of light in her paintings. Further, her adept modeling and masterful use of composition and color brings the viewer into the work, deep into the soul of the subject.
Ferraro demonstrates her ability to interpret the world around her through two other mediums as well - collage and assemblage. Nature is interpreted in colorful collage and stories are told through fascinating assemblages of found objects.
