Angelo Di Francesco
Published:

Angelo Di Francesco paints like someone in love with the world—which, in this sadly divided and tense moment, feels like a welcome escape, a reminder of the beauty still here.
His work is full of life—lush, spontaneous, romantic.
It feels like music, like Ravel’s Boléro—building gently, then all at once.
It’s happened.
The afternoon light slipping across the city.
A person standing in a shadow on a street corner.
Lake Ontario gleaming in the sun.
His art is Toronto.
Canada.
His brush, a breeze—pulling beauty from the everyday, capturing moments as they pass, turning landscapes into lyrical ballads with tenderness and grace.
Born in Toronto’s Little Italy and raised along College Street, Angelo is a contemporary artist rooted in memory and movement.
Inspired by French impressionists, Canadian painters, and Asian art traditions, he brings together past and present with brush and light.
Though oil is his primary medium, he also works with acrylic, ink, watercolour, and pastel.
His paintings carry the glow of the places he’s been and the people he’s seen—each piece a quiet offering, a gentle reminder to notice.
