Marseill is one of the most famous and popular port of the Mediterranean Sea. This marine town attracts many tourists, visitors and a large number of sailors. I love painting ports and sail marines. I’m inspired by the crowd of the sails and the boats that create multiple layers which extend in the depth. What sets painting apart is the golden light of the evening clear sky. This is the characteristic light of the southern regions of the Mediterranean Sea

Since the beginning of my artistic pathway, I motivated by the expression and the footprint of the instant motion of the human activity as well as of the active participation of the natural environment. Perhaps this is the reason why I am attracted by dynamic and athletic themes. My first paintings were focused on “motorcycle racing”, a very dynamic and fast pacing sport. Then I expanded my portfolio working on “horseback riding” and “happy valley racing”, Olympic Games paintings and several other similar topics. In my later and a bit more mature times, I focused on the “individual sailing”, “crowded sailboats marine”, “trade ports” and various other topics covering human daily routine activities, such as the “flea market” and “bazaar”. In general I’m mesmerised by the crowd, the colour compositions, the motion and the dynamic vibes that can release strong feelings and stimulate the senses.
