Description
Dedicated to Roberta Paris, the most lovely genetic engineer I’ve ever meet.She has a luminous, breathtaking smile… and, luckily, she often smiles! Of course I was not able to catch any of the beauty of her smile.
Unconsciously, I arranged the drawing in different fragments… may be because I still do not know her very well… I know only few glimpses of her character and life. So I do not have a “complete” idea of her…
I decided to draw a summer scene with the sea, a little village… those are some of the things I like most, so I wanted to associate her with them. Moreover, her mother is from Sicily and she still keeps in her veins the vitality of that sunny island as you can immediately guess when you seen her smiling... Nonetheless, I drew also a night scene… the night is a mysterious part of our existence and it’s the home of the dreams… I liked very much the strong contrast between the night and the day… I think is rather appropriate, since I believe she now living a stressful and contradictory situation.
As far as the technical point of view, I used china ink, watercolours and pastels… The scanner, of course, messed-up all the colours and the original is rather different, anyway I couldn’t do better…
I suggest the full view.
I’ll be waiting for your critics and suggestions!!!

Bellissimo..davvero..mi piace tantissimo la tua linea e il modo in cui hai costruito l'immagine attraverso vari frammenti collegati idealmenet ma separati visualmente nella composizione ^^

This is ana amzing image, the fact that each snapshot of this character still links up is a great concept. Can't wait to see more from you

<----does not know the difference between china ink, india ink, german ink, inky-ink....
i really love the fragments and how the picture is kinda like a mosaic, and i love the explanation you gave about why it is just pieces. it was very deep/poetic. the composition is lovely! looking through your gallery, i have foundt hat the thing i like most about your pictures is the clever and creative way you organize your pictures. the green lines give it a really unique look. the smile is so warm and genuine!
