ART&NATURE
Original drawings inspired by our beautiful Nature.
All the drawings are realized with traditional watercolour pencils and ink.
To be as close as possible to Nature,
natural elements are added, such as clay soil or chalk, ochre or wood or limestone powders (homemade),
charcoal and ash, infusion of fresh plants and spices.
Not forgetting rainwater or mountain stream water and sometimes morning dew to mix the pigments.

I think that my artistic approach and the approach of the environmentalist
are quite similar in ways that both are interested in Nature and all its beauties with depth, simplicity and sincerity.
Natural beauty is undoubtedly one of the foundations that unites
the artistic and environmental movements.
Protecting Nature is also protecting us
