'brucia' - typefaces for the cover title 

I just realized a new project for the courses 'Xilografia' e 'Progettazione grafica tipografica' kept by Marina Bindella @ Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma.

It is an artist book inspired to a big fire that distroyed the forest in the Dolomities last October. 

Each illustration is made by overlapping two or three different linoleum matrices. 

The cover is handcoloured with a handmade ink and printed with typefaces.

I hope I will soon find a way to show it somewhere from real! :)

'brucia' - the cover is ready

Crack 2019 - etching and digital prints

From 20th to 23rd June I was @ Crack with my prints.
I brought some prints taken from 'Il minipimer della nonna', some etchings, softground and woodcut prints too.
Thanks to all the friends who came and say 'hi' and everyone who bought and appreciate my work.

Thanks also to Laura Anfuso for inviting me to take part to this event.

wip - maybe I found the right one!

I started this new etching project @ Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma.
Here you are some wip pictures about printing and choosing the right paper, just to excite curiosity.
I will show you more later on. Stay tuned.
