"Marilyn Monroe" Painting

I was born in Rome in 1970 and since I was a child I have had a passion for drawing and colors. I graduated in Advertising Graphics from the State Institute for Cinema and Television "R. Rossellini" in 1989. During my career as a painter I have participated in numerous exhibitions, both collective and personal, also receiving prestigious awards such as the "Cartagine" Award 2022 in the Art and Culture section and the "Honorable Mention of Italian Art" from the Arcaista Academy of Fine Arts. Painting is not my only passion, I love writing and I have published three books: "Ho letto che è per sempre" (ed. Lampi di stampa, 2013), a collection of eight stories, "L'Anno Magico" (ed. Ultra, 2023, Settecolli Award) on the second championship of A.S. Rome 1982/83, written with Susanna Marcellini and “Il mondo ha la forma di un pallone” (ed. Ultra, 2024) sixteen football legends told with words and painting. I think that the main task of Art is to generate emotions, not necessarily positive ones, the important thing is to excite and be excited. This is why I love to define my way of painting “Emotional Chromatism”, a neologism created to try to explain in two words the universe I go through when I paint.
