SANIBEL ISLAND, Fla. (April 30, 2013) Sanibel Island\u2019s Il Cielo<\/a> restaurant hosted a reception on Sunday, April 28 for east coast artists Carmen Lagos and Gustavo Castillo.<\/p>\n

Attendees conversed with the artist about the vibrant and colorful paintings that are hung throughout the restaurant, all of which are also for sale.<\/p>\n

Meaning \u201cthe sky\u201d in Italian, Il Cielo is located at 1244 Periwinkle Way on Sanibel Island.<\/p>\n

Suzanne Lurie, Sanibel resident and retired interior designer who curated the artwork for Il Cielo, owns a number of Lagos and Castillo\u2019s prints in her Sanibel home and brought one of her own Giclees of a banana leaf by Lagos and hung it in the restaurant\u2019s foyer. She helped select the additional 15 pieces from Lagos and Castillo\u2019s catalogue. The limited edition prints, which were personally framed by the artists, range in size from 30 inches by 40 inches to 50 inches by 70 inches.<\/p>\n

Castillo and Lagos have been painting full time for 24 years. The married couple turned to painting full time after successful careers as a commercial pilot and architect. Lagos\u2019 work features an earthy palette and detailed forms of leaves and blossoms. Castillo\u2019s work, by contrast, has an abstract foundation and playfully addresses images and colors.<\/p>\n
