Artist Bio
Massimo (Max) Grasso
Born and raised in Rome, Italy I was enchanted by the beauty and art of the Eternal City. I began taking pictures and I tried to express with images the greatness of its history and beauty.
I like different forms of art, from music (classical, Jazz, Country, Rock) to poetry, paintings and Photography.
I earned a Doctor degree in Chemistry in Italy and a degree in photography at Georgian College in Barrie, I find them very similar because a great image require the correct chemistry of colours!
Over the years I captured images to describe beauty and used them to create art as much as I could.
I lived originally in Montreal and moved to Ontario and I had the fortune of traveling across the country because of my work from Coast to Coast.
In my travels I was able to capture images in Canada, Italy, USA and most recently in the Galapagos Islands.
I feel that Photography can be a difficult form of Art because the results especially in the digital age are too often quick and immediate.
Sometimes creativity is enhanced when the images of beauty are transformed into Art in the dark room or on a computer by the photographer.
Most of the images I show are captured with a digital camera and enhanced digitally afterwards.
I hope you will see in these images the development and greatness of Life.
