Portraits and nudes, acrylic on canvas

This gallery showcases an evocative series of acrylic portraits on canvas, combining pastel softness with emotional depth. While each piece stands alone, they all reflect a recurring exploration of human vulnerability and grace. Furthermore, the fluid textures and transparent layers offer a meditative atmosphere, blurring the line between realism and abstraction. As you browse, you’ll notice how faces and figures emerge through subtle gestures, inviting introspection. Whether you’re an art lover or a design professional, this page is a window into Moschetta’s refined, poetic approach to figurative painting.
