I attended the European Institute of Design in Rome from 1994 to 1998.  Graduated in Illustration with the vote of 110 cum laude (Thesis: “In Forme”, portraits made with various techniques), I published from 1998 to 2000 on “Lettere, la rivista degli italiani che scrivono” (“Letters, the journal of Italians who write”), (Pineider editions / Lettere Editrice s.r.l.)  and in 1998 on “Boxer” (Il Manifesto Cooperativa Editrice).  In 2001 I published on “Il Cuore”, weekly satirical directed by Riccardo Mannelli and in 2007 on the visual magazine “Fefè” directed by Luigi Vernieri

I participated to several collective exhibitions and art shows, the most recent are:

I won the First Prize at the extemporary art exhibition “Estemporanea di Pittura della città di Sermoneta” in 2005 and the prize from the Urban Institute during the Third Engravings Exhibition in the City of Formello.

My artistic research is based on the deep interest in the study of the live figure drawing.  I have addressed my artistic skills mainly towards the portraits maturing excellent expertise and speed in creating my works. 

Another branch in my research is the study of compositions related to real life issues with characters borrowed from the world of politics, news and entertainment, the construction of visionary images based on incoherent personalities.
