I paint with different techniques according to the mood, the subject and sometimes according to specific orders. Therefore even if  I usually paint with oil colours sometimes a try special, fascinating techniques like egg temper, with cherry rubber that gives a brilliant touch to the colours and transparency . Watercolours and acrylic are also a frequent option, for long my preferred techniques as they allow a fast painting and some beautiful nuances.

My subject are animals and plants of Eurasia. In most cases I could directly observe, “in situ” the species that I paint. Alternatively I studied them at the Alpen Zoo of Innsbruck, at the National Park of Bavarian Forest  and at the zoos of many other European cities.

I often get inspiration from my own pictures, or from books, magazines and obviously from internet. They help me to remember a special atmosphere, the colours of particular feathers or the natural position of an animal.

On request I portrait dogs, cats, horses and other pets.

I inform you that you can see my works from 28^th May through 11^th September at the Visitor Centre of National Park of Belluno Dolomites, at Pedavena and from 14^th September till 14^th October at the so called Ciasa de ra Regoles di Cortina d’Ampezzo.
