Since childhood I have been captivated by the hues of colours. At the age of 12 I developed my affection to colors into a hobby: oil painting. Just few years later I began practicing painting "en plein air" , facing all difficulties arising from weather conditions and natural surroundings. As years passed, what began as an avocation blossomed into a lifelong profession. In 2000 I started utilizing watercolour techniques for the first time. Fascinated by the vivid effect and potentiality brought by watercolor, I have been employing it more often since then. In 2010 I started portraying vintage cars, of which I have always been a dedicated admirer, thus joining my two favorite passions. As usual I use either oil , acrylic or watercolour techniques to enhance the light effects on the metal and chrome platings of the vintage cars I depict. These portraits are receiving growing appreciation on international level, increasing my reputation.
