I have a YouTube channel where I mainly talk about pictorial and graphic technique, and it is dedicated to those who are learning to paint and draw, but not only to them, but to all the people who like to deepen their knowledge of artistic technique.
I share on the channel the realisation of a simple painting depicting the glow of the sun of a late autumn morning in the countryside.

Descrivere un disegno da parte di chi lo ha eseguito rischia sempre di essere autoreferenziale, per questo mi limito solo a dire che non è il risultato di un percorso casuale, non vi è ispirazione, né una particolare urgenza di rappresentare uno stato d’animo, ma solo l’intenzione di costruire un equilibrio fra ciò che voglio fare e ciò che so fare, e solo l’esercizio costante può consentirmi di aumentare la possibilità di riuscire ad ottenerlo.
Describing a drawing by the person who made it always risks being self-referential, which is why I will limit myself only to saying that it is not the result of a casual path, of an inspiration, or a particular urgency to represent a state of mind, but only the intention to build a balance between what I want to do and what I know how to do, that only constant exercise can allow me to increase the chances of being able to achieve it.
During the quarantine more than ever I thought about suspended time, trying to transfigure it into the vision regarding the enjoyment of a non-negative but surprising and wonderful natural event. The choice fell on the glow that refers to the perennial, disarming human condition and helpless when faced with natural events.
