Pencil drawing of a composed photo of me
Milano see too place Gae Aulenti.
I love city landscapes with beautiful historical monuments, squares, skyscrapers.
I portray the city at night while he works and not while he sleeps
Even if Milan never sleeps.
It is like living in a dream in which the crystal palaces are immense aquariums where people move. They live, work, produce, love, play, dance, listen ... they get busy without ever stopping.
All this is observed by us and by the city itself which in turn dreams of Living by lighting up at night
Black and white give a touch of ancient and magic to the design.
At night the colors disappear and the shadows remain black like graphite
The technique is simple: pencil
Graphite, therefore, reflects its use for the sky: the sky of cities is always bright
City water-soluble pencils that remain opaque: they have a deeper black and increase the contrast with the light from the windows.
What I want to convey is to be able to immerse yourself completely in an emotion
In the vertigo of this visual experience
To increase the effect, the ratio of my drawings between base and height is 3 to 1
I want you to get into my drawings
With my curved frames, you are physically brought inside

Materials used:

Graphite
