Underwater Study 2

Titled Underwater Study 2, this acrylic painting on a large canvas (39" x 32") explores the mesmerizing distortions and reflections found beneath the surface of water. The female subject is seen only partially, creating an intriguing interplay between two worlds—the reflective fluid waterline and the dreamlike realm below. The movement of her hair in the water adds a sense of grace and fluidity to the composition. The painting heavily utilizes shades of blue to evoke the cool, calming depths, while light and air gently filter through the water, adding a sense of depth and motion. This work is part of a series of the artist's explorations into the theme of water, capturing its transformative and ephemeral qualities.

Artist Bio

Diana Di Giacopo-Robinson is a resident of Alliston, a member of the South Simcoe Arts Council and a York U Bachelor of Fine Arts Honours graduate. She is a realistic artist who primarily works in acrylics, and also enjoys oils, graphite and sculpture.

Her earliest and strongest memories are of her desire to create- to draw, paint, and sculpt. With her ancestral roots engrained from a very young age, she continues to be influenced by the art and architecture of Italy and her family.

With a soft spot for childhood memories and connecting personally to her work, her paintings represent the little treasures that life gives us. Elevating subjects and giving them a special place in our consciousness, offering a chance to check in, to slow down and to quiet the noise of life. In her process she often relies on her creative intuition and likes to present an evocative stillness, impacted with the use of strong, vivid colours. She hopes to project a sense of felicity, even if the message behind it may not necessarily be cheerful. Her intention is to overcome an often tense subject matter with a sense of happiness and peace in her final work.
