Luigi,
Physicist & Artist
I´m a curious mind, inspired by Nature and Arts. Always passionate about drawing and comics, I spent my teenage trying to emulate my favorite mangaka, searching for my style. What was already so fascinating to me at the time was how time quickly ran away as I drew or painted... After a 10+ years break, I´ve started to draw again during the pandemic, inspiring myself via social media platforms. At the same time, I discovered new techniques beyond pencil and ink, finally overcoming my natural fear to color (as a color blind person), embracing the beauty of watercolors, brush pens and gouache.
On February 2021 I´ve started my first collection called "Animal Transformation", about the connection between Nature and human being. In each portrait I try to paint our primitive origins through a different animal, catching its unique character.
On April 2021 my second collection "Zodiac" started as a one-year-long project, challenging myself every month with an evocative watercolor illustration of the Zodiac sign of that season.
A new collection is upcoming.
Bad thoughts...who haven't had them? This artwork from the Animal Transformation collection represents the moment when bad thoughts come in the girl's mind. Jelousy, invy, revenge. The Owl, typical symbol of the occult and arcan, is whispering in her ear all of these. Light and dark are in opposition. Gold leaf details make this portrait unique.
Watercolor, gouache and gold leaf on 300 gms paper.
24x32 cm, framed.
