Christ-Centered Art
would like to provide you
the opportunity for to
get to know our artists
through art trivia.
Currently we have the
following trivia available
for Ron DiCianni.
Are you deliberately trying
to hide things in your
paintings?
"I have never set out to
hide anything in my
work. Rather, there are
elements of secondary
and tertiary importance
to the central theme
represented in my work.
"In a painting we lessen
the importance of an
element by changing its
size, color, or rendering.
The lesser elements
become slightly obscure
at that point. When a
person 'discovers' them
later, it can seem that
the element was hidden.
"This is why it is very
important to study
these paintings. When
you think you have the
overall theme — after
you 'get it' — it can be
exciting to discover
related messages that
will expand your
appreciation for the
things of God."
