  • The beach bores me

    The beach bores me. When I’m there, I feel bored.

    If it weren’t for Enzo, who allowed me to set up my easel and paint, I would have no choice but to sleep on the deck chair. The Apuan Alps watch over me from above, while in front of me, the beach stretches out before a shimmering sea that fades into the horizon.

    My daughter-in-law posed as a model, and my son, as a photographer, captured this scene, which I then transferred onto the canvas.

  • Nostalgia di Sole

    December 2023 – I look out the window and the blinding white light is a solid background that highlights the profile of all the houses that surround me. This Milanese winter erases all the details. I am surrounded by objects cut out from a newspaper and glued onto a white sheet.

    Nostalgia di Sole is so strong and harks back to the months of August, where the sky rivaled the sea and a tenacious lifeguard ensures that this enchantment remains safeguarded.

  • Palmo Mare – Ronchi

    In Ronchi in Versilia there is a unique bathing establishment, because it is quiet. Where everyone has their own space and time to think and rest. Where the sun accompanies the beach and the umbrellas in perfect harmony. Everything is slow, rhythmic and elegant in living and respecting. My wife took this photo from our cabin, which inspired me for the light and peace it inspires.
