new blog!


It was 2003 i think, when i returned from montpellier with a pair of red maroccan slippers, hyped by the world, and when i decided to join the bandwagon and open a blog, which i would use while i was travelling and starting to consider painting as something more than a side project. it then evolved into this blog, which functioned as an oddly assorted portfolio, just images of my work, which in turn became, more often than not, an abandoned creature. when this happens you either quit or start over.
and so it is without further ado that i redirect you to the new space. goodbye red babouches!
hope to see you there!

Era il 2003 quando, tornata da montpellier con un paio di babbucce marocchine rosse decisi di aprire un blog, che avrei usato durante i viaggi e per documentare il mio crescente interesse per la pittura. quel progetto morì e si trasformò in questo blog, che comincio' come portfolio un po' male assortito e poi diventò qualcosa di piu', finchè, anche lui, venne trattato male e abbandonato il più delle volte. in questi casi o ci si arrende o si ricomincia. è per questo che senza troppe chiacchiere vi invito al mio nuovo spazio. addio babbucce rosse!
spero di trovarvi li!

triangles and poetry



5 new paintings on wood, in the shop.
5 nuovi quadretti su legno nel negozietto

the triangle dilemma.
sometimes I feel torn between making cute things for etsy, making illustrations for books and making huge abstract paintings for no reason at all. it's like having three lives. i hope 2011 is treating you well, peeps.

january's short days

i'll be moving out of this little apartment soon, away from the beeping cars downstairs and the eight storey tunnel that is this street. i will miss the immense light that comes through the gigantic window though, and the seagulls who sit on the roof opposite here sometimes.
it's gonna be a year of big change.
