Art Exhibition

Not Impressionism, Authentic French Impressionism.

Plein-air painter Jerry Fresia uses the French Impressionist method that enables him, in rendering his feelings, to become who he is most.

Fresia doesn’t paint pictures of the lake. He paints the feeling that the lake instills within him by painting layers of color where each layer is like lace, enabling you to peer through the surface layer and into the painting. His brushstrokes – masterful and authoritative – are often a gentle fury. He brings into being his own experience, fresh as it is eternal, characterized by a liveliness of light, moods that charm, a beauty that whispers in a thousand subtle sensations. Come, view the exhibition and feel it.

Few artists have captured the enchantment of Lake Como. Jerry Fresia has perfectly succeeded and has given to me, someone who has known and loved this lake my entire life, an entirely new emotion.

Fresia is by far the best contemporary painter of Lake Como and the Lombard Prealps.

Fresia è di gran lunga il miglior pittore contemporaneo del Lago di Como e delle Prealpi Lombarde.

Fresia is a wonderful high key artist like Turner and Lloyd Rees. There are only a few artists who are able to paint like this.

Fresia è un meraviglioso artista dai toni lievi come Turner e Lloyd Rees. Ci sono solo pochi artisti che sono in grado di dipingere in questo modo.

Award-winning documentary filmmaker, Australia & UK

I have filmed Fresia painting and he is masterful at creating life with every brush stroke. Watching him work is inspiring beyond words.

Ho ripreso Fresia dipingere ed è un maestro a creare vita con ogni colpo di pennello. Guardarlo all’opera ispira più di quanto per qualsiasi possa esprimere.
