About Pier Luigi Baffoni Hon Sen ROI

Profile

Artist details

Artist's Statement

Painting has always been Pier Luigi Baffoni’s passion.  He was inspired and influenced by professional painters in his family and their vast range of subjects, from portraiture to landscape and still life.  They also introduced him to a wide variety of media, such as oils, pastels and watercolours.

Method of Working

For many years Pier has been painting in oils, watercolours and pastels directly from life. With this long experience, he feels confident in also making use of photographic material.

He is very interested in how, through an understanding of the complementary colours, one can achieve warm or cool temperatures and an intensity of light.  He finds it useful, therefore, to prepare for a subject in oils through preliminary sketches in pastel. For his oil paintings Pier uses mainly brushes and occasionally palette knife.  He works on canvas, canvas board and board.

An area of particular interest to him is portraiture, which he finds most exciting when done from life.
