IED - CONCEPTUAL ILLUSTRATION FINALS' DAY 20.2.2015

Yesterday it was finals day at my Conceptual Illustration class at IED-Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan. Thanks to all who attended: Stefano, Carolina, Mattia B., Mattia D., Roberto, Ruben, Martina, Alice, Elisa, Chiara, Emanuel, Veronica and Camilla. It's been a real pleasure everyone! 
The end of the journey; relief, of course, but also a bit of sadness (as usual).

FACEBOOK ARTCHALLENGE 2015 - DAY 2

The Artists Sefano Misesti and Yungyen Tsui who are also my friends have politely invited me to the Facebbok #ArtChallenge 2015. 
Thank you Stefano! Thank you Yungyen!
Each artist has to publish three images a day for five days, suggesting also a new artist each day. My first suggestion was the famous Italian illustrator Costanza Favero; for Day 2 I have invited Walter Gropius!

For Day 2 I have chosen a few images from my 2013-2014 exhibitions. Characters in those paintings have surreptitiously come together in today's Facebook banner.

FACEBOOK ART CHALLENGE 2015 - Day 1

The Artists Sefano Misesti and Yungyen Tsui who are also my friends have politely invited me to the Facebbok #ArtChallenge 2015. Each artist has to publish three images a day for five days, suggesting also a new artist each day. My first suggestion is the famous Italian illustrator Costanza Favero: it's your turn now!

For Day 1 I have chosen a few images from my 2010-2011 exhibition 'Milano in Bilico', 'Milan on the Wobble', an ironic, surreal and poetic collection of stories on the City of Milan.
