When I was a child, at my grandparents’ house there was always a dog. I grew up playing with these animals and can perfectly recall their temper and their names – Lilla, Vispo, Bobby, Ciccio, Socrate. They definitely were my best friends. In the long Summer afternoons, we wandered around looking for new things to discover and new plays to play. Their most astonishing feature was, for me, their expressiveness. In my opinion, dogs can cry and laugh – no doubt! In this moment of my life, many childhood memories are emerging. In this case, for example, the dog’s features are not the same of my dogs, and maybe the tiles in the background are not the same color or shape than the ones in my Grandma's kitchen. The expression of a scolded dog, however, is still vivid in my mind. It seemed natural to depict it on a canvas. As in other recent works, here the background is more detailed and synthetically describes an indoor location. Framed with wood batons – no additional framing required. Ready to hang.

Transformation, light and the mixing of old techniques with new materials play a leading role in my recent production. The main link between my works is a quest for harmony, an attempt to describe the inner – and sometimes hidden – elegance of trivial matters. Ethereal female figures inspired by ancient Myths, flowers, fruits, peacocks and other pieces of reality are depicted in my bright figurative style that recalls the great tradition of European painting, especially the analytic approach in describing reality that was typical of both Van Eyck and the Pre-Raphaelites. My strokes are normally clean and the images neat, however I sometimes focus on a specific part of a painting, especially when an unexpected element - such as a Plexiglas layer - is inserted into the composition. In this way, the incredible potentiality of oil painting flourishes through the clear lines of a feature, in opposition to the blurriness of another one. My quest towards the soul of things pushes me often toward portraiture, this wonderful game of mirrors where the individuality of the artist merges into the inner self of the model.
