On The Pond oil pastel on paper Shoeller cm.35x50 
shore oil pastel on paper Fabriano 100g. semiruvida Both models are taken from photographs.
In the first, which I removed the silly sandals with stiletto heels, set in a pond, I had hit the plastic elegance, enhanced by slender body, carved from the merciless light of the environment in which Vanessa Beecroft was organizing one of his rallies.
The model is a time of waiting, and the limbs are relaxed, giving a feeling of contemplative meditation, which perfectly combines the tranquility of the pond.
Of the second was from my loved the joyful expression of the body caught in the race. Being an intimate complaints, I removed the garment (although small), and the usual twelve-heeled slippers, trying to give the face a joy less professional, I also changed the posture of his right arm covering her breasts , adding the fabric color to make sense of the installation, which could be perceived as motivated by striptease, and I wanted that, if there was malice, was that of his carefree youth, due to the theme of Susanna.
The use of oil pastel, which I am compelled by the small space of the process (it is not metaphorical, it is a retreat) where I spend most of the day of work to do, allows me a lot second thoughts and corrections, to tune the colors, and refine the design, working in successive layers, scratched, scored, rubbed.
Sometimes the feeling is to work in a "plastic" often seems to proceed to tender incision. The fact that cololri tend always a paste between them, while there is a limit, because it hinders the combination of colors divisionistico clean, on the other leads us to discover novel nuances and effects that stimulate the study, control them.
The colors of oil pastels are not as bright and ductile such as pigments combined with primer, the combinations are not always effective.
