About the Item
This painting is called October because it was completed in October 2021. It is expressive in style and also brings together clippings from my journals, one of my drawings of a Scotland map and also writings, relating to how I felt at the time of painting.
I love to journal and sketch and used previous material I had done in October 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. I always think there is a reason why you do something, however I had no idea in October 2021 that I would be drawing on work and writing that I had done over the previous years. Despite being completed in 2021, this work includes references to at least four years of my life.
I painted this painting without thought of the final outcome and painted intuitively without fear.
In the work there are references to songs that I was listening to and people that have had an impact on my life. This includes reference to an artist called Cy Twombly. I studied his work while I was at school and love the fact that I have made reference to him in an artwork that I created years after school.

- "Health Formula", cycle "Symbols of Prosperity"Located in Aberdeen Dyce, GB"Health Formula" Human health is its main well-being. But a person is not only a Body, it is, first of all, a Spirit and a Soul. Therefore, the healing process cannot be considered solely as a treatment of the Body. There is an expression: "Physics needs physics." This suggests that if you have health problems, then you should definitely go to the doctor and use it to eliminate these problems at the physical level. But, eliminating the consequence - the disease, doctors will not eliminate the causes of its occurrence, since they are at the level of the subtle plane and are caused by damage to the energy shell of the sick person, leakage of vital energy or its transformation into negative. A person with such energy will “catch” any negativity rushing around and more often suffer from relapses and chronic diseases, accidents, depressive states, etc. Our ancestors knew about this and, using the methods of body treatment available at that time, for example, herbs, they also used symbols and signs to heal and close energy wounds, and as amulets for protection and prevention. That is why all clothes, utensils, furniture, houses, armor, etc. of our ancestors are decorated with appropriate symbols. The memory of the ancestors still lives in us, their strength and influence growing every day. How it works, science explains: the higher the frequency of waves in the space around a person and in himself, the healthier he is both emotionally and physically (about the Schumann resonance, changes in the structure of water under the influence of sounds, frequencies of the tertiary structure of the DNA helix, frequencies of brain waves in different emotions and states, etc. you can read on your own). How can the Health Formula help? - In a positive effect on both the physical state and the mental, managing the flow and direction of thoughts and the general condition of a person, maintaining the fire of life in all life situations. It balances the forces responsible for the proportions of the five main elements in the body, and, as a result, the functioning of all human systems and organs is normalized. For example, an excess of the elements of ether and air can cause nervous irritation, high blood...Category

- Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters) Italian Expressionist Painting on CanvasBy Andrea SpinelliLocated in Firenze, ITThe present work of art titled "Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters)" is part of a series of paintings that the artist composed in the 1980s and 1990s inspired by the observation of the urban reality of those years. The artist take the cue from his walks in Florence, both in the center and in the suburbs, and by the observation of billboards and posters scattered throughout the city. The mass of information, colors, messages and words were carried on the canvas with acrylic colors, ideally reconstructing the tears and overlaps of all the information and advertising contained on these huge sheets of paper that invade our cities. The geometric lines are overlaid with jagged lines, overlaps and color dripping and also the choice in the color palette, with different shades of white, gray, rose, orange red and blue helps in rendering the result of the tears and ripped paper. The result is a beautiful multicolored modern abstract canvas, both aesthetically and ethically, with many rich layers of color, texture and expression in which the artist leaves his own message. The painting is housed in a simple modern white lacquer wood frame. Andrea Spinelli...Category
