An artist from Philadelphia, Anthony Rastelli moved to Colorado in 2014. He has a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Illustration degree and, in addition, experience working in the construction industry. In 2015, he turned his attention to merging the worlds of fine art with textural wall finishing in interior design and launched Denver Plaster.
Denver Plaster focuses on replicating what is seen in the industrial landscape and natural world and combining them as murals in commercial and residential spaces.
When it comes to his projects, quality and durability are key. “What I like most about Novacolor Italia products is that they consistently deliver reliable materials for my creativity to be applied to most surfaces. I dream of designing enormous walls with other artisans around the world!” The beautiful bar (above) features two tones of Animamundi and the incredible patterned plaster walls for a commercial space (below) feature CalceCruda and Swahili.
As to his favorite Novacolor Italia product? Anthony says, “I do not have a single favorite material, but I enjoy integrating all of the materials together, madly experimenting – spellbound even!” The curved fireplace (above) features CalceCruda and Metallo Fuso, while the large living room (below) features Animamundi.
Aside from the decorative arts business, he is a musician currently working in collaboration with Europe’s “Prophet of the Piano” Lubomyr Melnyk. Anthony’s artwork is videographed and projected behind Lubomyr while he plays “continuous music,” a never-ending stream of notes. One series is called: “PIANTINGS: A Visual RE-Sight-al of Music.
We hope you’ve enjoyed a sampling of Anthony’s incredible work – including the peek at a beautiful Florenzia bath wall above. Thank you, Anthony, for sharing your artistry with Novacolor Italia products!
