Having finished my training at the Charles H. Cecil Studios and having been trained and having worked at the Galleria Romanelli in Florence, Italy, I now work in sculpture and portraiture with the sight-size method. Painting and sculpting from life, with natural light, aiming towards life-size scale, and when painting, working with a reduced palette are strong foundations for my work.

The old and classical masters from the 16th to the 19th century are a profound source of inspiration. Sometimes the interest to copy them and learn directly from them is too strong to resist. Other times they just invite to mimic their color combinations or beautiful compositions.

Hohlbein, Lorenzo Lotto, Van Dyck, Velásquez, Bernini, Lorenzo Bartolini, Caspar David Friedrich, Courbet and John Singer Sargent are a few of the artists that I most admire and have shaped my way of looking at painting and sculpture.

I have been working independently since 2020, at first in Florence and later on in Zurich, Switzerland. I am based since August 2024 in Villa de Leyva, Colombia.
