ABOUT THE ARTWORK
La ragazza siciliana (The Sicilian girl) was inspired by a visit to Emilia Romagna where I met a Sicilian girl worker at lunch with friends. She had this earthy, southern beauty which really came out, on this brilliantly sunny day, in her skin tones and smile. She was among four or five workers, all friends of Andrea Guerra and Polly Piva, who were taking a lunch break when I sketched her. One of my art forms is creating an oil painting from pencil sketches. In this practice, I consider the sketch a short-hand encoding of the portrait information which comes to life in the oil portrait.
