Wanting to practice water I used a photo of a beach I know well on the coastline of Maratea in southern Italy with fond recollections of my childhood. Pine trees have colonized the volcanic rock and though the coarse sand is particularly dark, the sea is a vivid cobalt blue.

Educated in England, I trained as an art restorer in Italy, first in Venice and then in Rome subsequently working on a variety of different artifacts. After many years in Tuscany I am now based in Campania. Though I drew from an early age, I approached painting only in the recent years calling upon the knowledge of the use of colour, the techniques of the old masters and the behavior of different materials. As a nature lover, landscapes are my preferred subject, rarely “contaminated” by the presence of mankind. In easel paintings I work from a neutral ground (which often acts as a medium tone ) juxtapositioning thin oil colour without any glazing, usually using a single dagger brush. In murals I work with fluid acrylic colour on a white luminous ground producing a mat gauche o tempera effect. Recently I discovered the pleasure of painting on wood using reclaimed door panels, gratifying also for my belief in the coalition economy-ecology. This however limits me to small formats where, not wanting to lose any feature, I inevitably use much detail. Contradictorily, having a keen interest in architecture and interiors, I particularly enjoy the larger scale of murals and trompe l’oeils which have a greater visual impact, enhancing and integrated in their environment. Occasionally I also do sculptural work where the theme is invariably inspired by nature. I prefer working with commissions, necessary of course for murals or trompe l’oeils.
