Many homes in Coromandel Town and the surrounding area have Tony Calsaferri on their walls. After 24 years of painting Tony’s work has found its place, with his completing 100 paintings annually.
His colourful, creative pieces are well liked and becoming to interior decoration strongly influenced by Central American style and flair. Tony’s artwork is all about bringing colour into people’s homes and wanting to increase the energy vibration of the person who views his work. “The colours are the bright colours, the colours of the rainforest, the colours of the Mayan culture” says Tony.
Living a bachelors dream, he travelled to Guatemala where he carved hardwood supporting a sustainable community eco-tourist venture on a Mayan ruin overlooking Lake Peten-Itza near Tikal. Tony started painting, creating a style based on Mayan glyphs and symbols, which then became a lifestyle.
His work is colour therapy and his studio, covered with his colourful works, seems to fit perfectly, a style and vibrancy that spells a certain rhythmic and qualitative education of the higher learning from the ancient civilisation.
