"Canvas, walls, cupboards doors and ceilings can become the surfaces on which I mix and blend those chemical mixtures known as colours, to try to evoke to the viewers of my artworks at least some of the beauty which move me.

The passion for art I have cultivated since I was a child has become my job.

I learnt art techniques in my father’s workshop and, since the 1980s, I have my own art and restoration studio. I am specialized in oil painting on canvas, wall decoration and frescoes."

Francesco Farolfi

Francesco has focused on all the possibilities offered by the trompe l’oeil technique, creating architectural illusions (quadratura) which frame landscape murals, or tricking the viewer with visual games full of surprises.
 He paints original artworks or custom made paintings, including reproductions of ancient subjects, using different traditional techniques: oil on canvas, tempera on canvas, wood and walls, and fresco (visit the galleries, they contain artworks made until 2008: Murals; Trompe L'oeil; Copies; Classical Frescoes; Ceilings)
 He can paint directly on walls and ceilings, or he can create murals on canvas or panels which are painted in the studio and then installed on the wall. Painting murals on canvas has different advantages: canvas can be easily removed and reinstalled when needed and this method is not disruptive to the client’s home environment. Francesco’s works can be found across Italy, United States and Japan. For decorative projects, he prepares proposals, including sketches and estimates of costs, which are then submitted for approval by the client.
