About The Artwork
Inspired by a friend from Emilio-Romagna, Polly, who is an art restorationist and a great character. This is painted from a sketch that I made into a poster for an exhibit. I have since lost touch with Polly but have fond memories of Andrea Guerra, her ex, and her, during long summer in Livergnano. I was staying in the cave side writing studio apartment of Pier Cesare Bori for the summer and the two neighbors, Polly and Andrea, befriended me. We traveled together to the Tuscan coast, hiked together in nearby mountains, and generally partied together throughout the summer. Later on, years after, it appeared that the two were separating and at one moment I caught Polly in a sad mood which became this painting made after an earlier sketch.
