Born in Italy, in a town at the foot of the Alps, on lake Como, I moved to the USA after marrying a US service man. I absolutely love animals and nature. I think our purpose here on the planet is to learn (and teach) to be in harmony with our surroundings. I like art and music (classic rock, particularly). I like digitally animated movies as I admire and appreciate the work in them. I enjoy funny movies. I think laughing is great and it should be done daily. “Il riso fa buon sangue” is an Italian saying literally translated into “laughter makes good blood”.
I have been drawing and painting since I could hold a pencil and a brush. I have always had a fascination with blank books, art supplies, pens, pencils and papers. I like nice stationary, high-quality journals and notebooks. I particularly like fountain pens and Moleskine notebooks. I rather buy one of those than a pair of shoes. But I digress…
