In The Beauty of Mother Nature, Laura Bernardeschi Nelson captures the serene and dynamic essence of our planet through a harmonious blend of color and texture. Drawing inspiration from her hiking experiences in the countryside since 2011, Laura became deeply attuned to the subtle variations of green in the landscape. She noticed how the green shades around her seemed to change with the seasons, the light, and the landscape itself—each tone a reflection of the earth’s vitality and spirit.
On the canvas, Laura layers acrylic paints to build up these delicate gradients, capturing the soft yet rich tones of green that define the natural world. As the work develops, the artist introduces vibrant accents of gold and red, applied using acrylic paste and oil pastels. These lively hues symbolize the flowers dotting the fields and the movement of the wind through the grasses, lending the composition a sense of life and motion.
The interplay of texture and color in the painting not only brings the beauty of nature to the viewer’s eye but also reflects a deeper connection to the environment—one that is both tranquil and full of life, constantly shifting and evolving. The piece invites the viewer to pause, breathe, and appreciate the ever-changing beauty of the earth.
With its rich layers, dynamic textures, and radiant accents, The Beauty of Mother Nature is a striking and intimate homage to the world around us. It is varnished, ready to hang, and signed with authenticity, offering a piece of nature’s splendour for any space.

Love is in the Air is a vibrant and expressive celebration of love and the spirit of Saint Valentine. In this piece, Laura Bernardeschi Nelson layers acrylic paints, acrylic paste, and oil pastels to capture the ethereal, ever-changing nature of love itself. Each brushstroke, each layer of colour, is a testament to the complexity and depth of human connection, as well as the joy and emotion that love can evoke.
Through the use of soft, flowing shades and bold, expressive accents, the artwork conjures the sensation of love as something that envelops and elevates, like a breath of fresh air or a gentle breeze. The dynamic interplay of media creates textures that mirror the fluid, unpredictable course of romantic feelings—sometimes tender, sometimes passionate, always moving.
The rich tones of red, pink, and gold flow seamlessly throughout the composition, drawing the viewer’s eye in with a sense of warmth and intimacy. The subtle addition of acrylic paste and oil pastels creates an almost tangible quality to the painting, as if the emotions themselves are captured in texture and form.
Love is in the Air is not just a celebration of love in its traditional form but a reminder of its transformative power—how love can fill the air around us, shaping our thoughts, actions, and connections. This piece is both a visual homage and an emotional one, offering a timeless expression of affection and the joy of being in love.
Varnished, ready to hang, and signed with authenticity, Love is in the Air brings a heartfelt message to any space, infusing it with warmth, beauty, and an uplifting energy.
