"Ad laetam", charcoal and grafite on shoellershammer 4G 2 mm, 100 x 70 cm, 220 hours of work, only hatching tecnique, no blender tools used, only pencil. We are in Paradise, in Eden, and in this magnificent place lives a wonderful white creature who delights in picking the flowers of this fantastic garden. She represents happiness, the lost human state, the time when man was not a slave to time and matter. Her main concern is to pick flowers, to make herself more beautiful with the fruits of this enchanted meadow. Nothing troubles her, happiness reigns supreme in the woman of Eden. Only when one meets this creature, admires her beauty, contemplates her eyes that shine like two stars, can one understand the true meaning of happiness. The happiness of the soul, not the fleeting happiness of worldly life. This path that I began, following my teacher Emanuele Dascanio, was a path to happiness. And to achieve happiness, one must first descend into the depths of one's ego, face one's limit
