| I was born on January 19, 1968 in Milano, Italy.
I live in Albi, France.
My father, a wellknown painter, let me play with his paintbrushes and colours and use them on walls and canvas as I took my first steps in his atelier. he encouraged me, however, not to follow his painting style but rather to express myself according to my personal talents. I have been working in my own atelier during the years of Secondary School specialized in Classical Studies. I attended the Liceo Parini in Milano and I graduated in 1986. I started University at the age of eighteen, I became independent and moved out; although, I learned painting, modelling and sculpting techniques by my way.
I opened my first Studio of Fine Arts in 1996. I’ve always tried to diversify my artistic production, so I started to realize mosaics and handicrafts, but I never quit painting.
During these years, I showed my works in personal and collective exhibitions, generally in Art Centres in Italy and in France, as specified in the list above.
I then realized many works for private clients, including mosaics, furniture and mural décors in restaurants and pubs. In particular, I’d like to mention one very special mosaic work - about ten foot by four foot - realised on commission and exhibited as a mural décor at Chico Mendes, an equitable trade shop situated in the centre of Milano (Corso San Gottardo).
Starting from 2001, I reside and work at my actual address in Albi, France. |
