An italian painter with awesome technical skills, creates incredibly detailed oil paintings, predominately figurative and still life artworks. The impressive creations of Milan-based artist Emanuele Dascanio, feature various fruits against a black background allowing the viewer to concentrate on the detailed texture and shadows on the edible objects. Dascanio, who graduated from Italian art school Fontana di Arese, calls himself a perfectionist and says he “has devoted much time to the study of artistic techniques and the search for continuous improvement in his skills as a painter.”
