Rob Dome is Italian artist Roberto Domeneghini.
He was born in a small city in the south of Italy. Influenced by Italian art and history, he picked up arts from a very young age.
His art journey continued with a degree in Design in Italy, followed by a successful career as a VFX artist for the movie industry in London and various other locations eventually leading him to Australia. Here he studied watercolour in Melbourne, home to one of the best watercolour scenes in the world, and attended classes taught by some of its best watercolour artists such as Zbukvic, Castagnet and Dansey.
Roberto currently lives and works in Melbourne, Australia as a fine artist. Today, his paintings span from oil to watercolor, charcoal drawings and digital illustrations.
He is also working as a freelance concept/visual development artist and illustrator, specialised in storytelling and narrative illustrations.
“Painting is what connects me to the world we live in. A well crafted image or painting is so if it has the amazing power to evoke deep emotions and feelings, make you reflect or bring back memories. It needs to tell a story.“
