Ballpoint Pen on Cardboard, 14,8 x 10,5 cm, September 2022
This drawing is part of an in-depth study on the sign which may appear simple but which reveals how the work is constantly changing.
Some time ago I recorded a video where I showed the work done from start to finish.
It seemed finished and instead I found myself working on it again and again.
and this is the result
Below the video with the first draft

This portrait is important because show the peculiarity of the painting that seem out of focus but in real is very focused. It is realized with a different technique from that used by crawling the brush to get a blurred effect. Instead the effect is obtained by many small brush strokes that allow me to get a really disorienting effect for the eyes. It’s a real technical challenge that has a rendering impossible to make with a simple photograph. Click on the image.

To the peoples that have always encouraged me.
In a little over a month will open my performance at the Coningsby Gallery in London. During the exhibition I will exhibit a total of 17 large format drawings, many of them unpublished and 12 biroscape. It is an event to which I have dedicated six months of work and which I particularly care about.
This is a message of thanks, from the bottom of my heart to all those who have wanted and want to penetrate this little world that my works generate.
The exhibition will be held as I wrote at the Coningsby Gallery from 15 to 21 July.
Below is an article that Ronald Bell, director of theballpointer.com, wanted to dedicate to me and which sums up a long and tiring journey in two pages.
I love you and every time I draw it is my care not to deceive you.
