Statement
Using oil or acrylic on canvas, paper or wood, I paint landscapes and cityscapes of Italy and California. Brightly colored and uplifting, my paintings tell stories that touch the relationship of sentient beings with the environment. Some of these landscapes will disappear due to climate change. I want to leave a legacy of what they used to look like.
In the past years, I have also created portraits, figurative and abstract compositions. I continue working on these subjects when inspiration arises, and when I receive a request for commissioned paintings.
