This valley, close to Volturara Irpinia in the Apennines of southern Italy, is called “Piano del Dragone”. The cows seemed in no way preoccupied and the only wisp of smoke came from a bonfire in a distant field. The dull greens and rust colours of this late autumn day greatly appealed to me. I nearly regretted substituting the over casted sky with the blue hue…. Finding uncontaminated nature in the Campania region is not easy as there is little respect and understanding of the natural beauties. The Irpinia area tends to be an exception with a better relationship with the land. I think it is important to give this recognition and I do this through painting.

Italy
Educated in England, I trained as an art restorer in Italy, first in Venice and then in Rome subsequently working on a variety of different artifacts. After many years in Tuscany I am now based in Campania. Though I drew from an early age, I approached painting only in the recent years calling upon the knowledge of the use of colour, the techniques of the old masters and the behavior of different materials. As a nature lover, landscapes are my preferred subject, rarely “contaminated” by the presence of mankind. In easel paintings I work from a neutral ground (which often acts as a medium tone ) juxtapositioning thin oil colour without any glazing, usually using a single dagger brush. In murals I work with fluid acrylic colour on a white luminous ground producing a mat gauche o tempera effect. Recently I discovered the pleasure of painting on wood using reclaimed door panels, gratifying also for my belief in the coalition economy-ecology. This however limits me to small formats where, not wanting to lose any feature, I inevitably use much detail. Contradictorily, having a keen interest in architecture and interiors, I particularly enjoy the larger scale of murals and trompe l’oeils which have a greater visual impact, enhancing and integrated in their environment. Occasionally I also do sculptural work where the theme is invariably inspired by nature. I prefer working with commissions, necessary of course for murals or trompe l’oeils.
