A day of work

Yesterday we received the new Zoo-mugs, they look pretty good but there were a lot of work to do woth them. Luckily this time the poor human (me!) wasn’t the only one to sweat…I had a precious little assistant, Pepe, who followed accurately all the process.

Klimt’s Danae

It was a long time I wished to find time to draw, actually when I decided to try to be a “real” illustrator it was to spend hours drawing and not feeling guilty with thoughts like “damn, I should be working now!”.
Finally I put other activities aside for a while to spend some weeks doing what I like most…and it’s such a nice sensation waking up thinking “ok, which one of my ideas will become real today?”…Danae is the first answer.

When I was seventeen I had the chance to see a Klimt’s retrospective in Firenze and I still consider it as one of the most astonishing art exhibition I ever seen: vibrant colors, amazing style, but what really shocked me was the huge amount of such beautiful paintings he made…somehow in my head I thought that such beauty could exist just in a “limited edition”.
