My driving force is fantasy , even do I can be good classic painter my goal time after time is be unconventional even is figuratively, Paint is my black hole where time no matter day pass in a hour and i can fell good.

My work can be positioneted in a pop surrealist scene , classic pictorial process coupled with unusual pairs and unlikely events, why I said I like to think that people may be surprised and a the same time be able to see something aggravating.

Some time my process can be long and come from my fantasy some time i dream about , can happen all of a sudden in day the immagine come on my mind is like a can see already and then i follow to build the image already clear for me , no easy dreams come true i try to do in my work.
