PORTRAITS WITH THE HEART I recently started creating a new series of works in which I want to represent, through direct, easy-to-read painting, the love that is present in people's actions and gestures. The title of the collection is: "Portraits with the heart". The heart is at the center of my works both as my conscious act of love in the creation of the work, and as a graphic representation of the heart as an icon. I portray ordinary people I meet in my life and in whom I see, through their small or large stories, the place or object in which they place their heart. I often paint portraits to order, in which case I spend time with the client to grasp "His story of the heart" which I will rewrite through painting. The extremely personal artistic style is, only in part, inspired by impressionism, expressionism, abstractionism and pop art. The work is aimed at the public with the intention of showing an unexpected point of view of reality in its immediacy, creating a new vision of reality.

I started painting at the age of five. My mother gave me a large room for painting when I was little. I have always dedicated myself to art. For many years I worked as an illustrator for children's books. In 2002, IBBY Andersen in London included me in their catalogue of the 100 best illustrators in the world. I love all artists, both contemporary and from the past, and in my paintings I am inspired by Mantegna and Caravaggio, the French impressionists and the Italian Macchiaioli. With my paintings, I want to hold that magical moment I experience in front of a landscape, an object or a particular event, and transfer it to the canvas. I love all my paintings like children, and I feel that in each one I have given form to that sense of strength, silence and infinity that permeates everything and inspires my works. Lately I'm deepening my research on light and shape. In particular, I am working on the essentiality of form and the power of light. I do many studies and many sketches before I do a work. I take care of the use of colors very carefully and I tend to be as essential as possible, always leaving free the creative drive that motivates me. Currently the most recent works are included in the Italian National Catalog of Cultural Heritage. I love the Japanese concept of "komorebi", which I apply in my works: the shimmer created by leaves swaying in the wind and which exists only once, in that precise present moment.
