Re-drawing

An oil painting of mine I have just drawn up again by photoshop for testing my improvements in drawing. Mixed media: oil on cardstock and washi (Japanese paper), and digital. Inspired by my favourite male model Clement Barreda. For a larger view click HERE.

Kimono: Concept

This is a concept for the manufacture of a kimono. Digital coloring: Japanese style design for the fabrics' patterns. 

Pictorial experimentation

Processing aspects of two different cultures (both European and Japanese) in the idea, in the characters and in the materials. I feel close to Japanese culture and I love it as the Italian one. 
The setting is Japanese spa on winter night.   *washi=Japanese paper

For these two illustrations I took inspiration from my favourite Japanese model Ai Tominaga.
