Antonio Masi

In his large-scale watercolor paintings, Antonio Masi seeks to capture the sensation of wonder and promise he experienced upon arriving at Ellis Island at age seven with his family after traveling for a week by freighter from Italy. His subjects range from New York City’s soaring bridges and landmarks to family portraits and historical figures, all executed in bold brushstrokes and multiple layers of thick glazes to enhance his carefully rendered descriptive details.
