I am a self-taught figurative painter. I owe my artistic growth and my infinite gratitude to my dear friend, Rodolfo Guzzoni, a painter who approached me to the mysterious world of art with passion and professionalism. My art is dedicated to portraiture, to create a still image, an emotional memory, which for me becomes a tribute to life.
I prefer acrylic colors, their matte finish and the short drying time that allows me to create my works without waiting.
My paintings can be found in private collections located in Europe, America, Australia and Asia.
I live and work in Milan …

Art is something personal, but also something that binds the painter to the observer. It combines what is in common and what is lacking in both. I think this is what decides the attraction for an artwork …
My paintings are inspired by the multiform cosmos of human emotions: thus the melancholy of the subjects is inextricably linked to Nature and the past, finding relief and perhaps refuge from a distant world like a background noise, which no longer disturbs …
Painting, why? Because It is a deeply moving experience. Because the activity of thought is finally fixed and stopped in a tangible, completely personal form.
Cultivating one’s creativity is like entering Alice’s wonderland, where painting is following a path of upside-down images, where seeing is no longer to look but to feel.
I paint because for me it is a sort of abandonment, in which I lose track of time, have a place in my brain to look at the unfolding of a new world, never perceived before.
Portrait is the most congenial form of art to me: observe the living being in all its forms, slow down and stop to make a snapshot of the subject, trying to traslate his language on canvas …
Portraits in acrylic painting technique, on canvas and wooden tables.
I work on commission…
