About me
Juli Morsella (julimorsella)
oil paint on marquetry, figurative neo-symbolist
- Biography
around the turn of the millennium while living in Hawaii, I became interested in marquetry and began making tables using the abstract nature designs of traditional Hawaiian quilts using local woods. I liked it so much I moved to Italy and became th sole apprentice of Daniele Parasecolo, one of Italy's foremost marquetriers, for two years. Since then I have lived between Italy and Hawaii, and recently opened a studio in the Denver Santa Fe Art District, developing a style of my own which is a combination of marquetry and oil painting.

has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.

I love the combination of wood and figural work- there are so many layers of meaning and metaphor.
Best,
Michael

Thanks for your comment.
Your work has a very natural beauty. I like how you use the woodgrain within your pictures.
Reminds me of Gauguin and Tahiti.
