Composed of warm colors and dynamic shapes and deep texture, Sebastian Alterera’s “Prosperity” abstract series is filled with the animation and emotion of figurative works. Born in New York, Alterera was inspired by his mother’s art and, at age 15, began creating his own art after his father died. Studying art in Italy, Alterera was deeply influenced by the natural beauty and cultural heritage of his surroundings. Relocating to San Francisco, Alterera works largely in rich, expressive alternative mediums such as drip painting and thick collage.
