"Il sorriso della Regina" Painting

I have close ties to the pictorial tradition of Venice and the Veneto region. I have little in common with the sirens of the contemporary scene and I follow the path of analytical painting, looking into the experiences of the past for the knowledge required to conduct personal research in the figurative realm. I studied ancient painting techniques in depth, (as the making of colours from natural components). I gained more experience at the Ca’ Rezzonico Museum, whereI made a number of copies from original paintings. I depict female figures, nature and landscapes. In my most recent artworks, I focused on Venice and “portrayed” its movements and allure in the evening and night-time. It is an enchanted city of shadows and dazzling lights, gold and silver, reflections and ruggedness that reinvents itself and offers fresh emotions. I have displayed my works in Veneto and a number of Italian cities. I live and work in Venice, Italy
