"Ansia" at Zero, Napoli

This work get its title from the writing on the girl's cap. This is one fo the first artworks where I used a pencil, alongside the oil pastel.
Isn't crazy that I learned to love and appreciate coffee while living in London? And when I moved back to Italy I struggled to find spots where I could get a coffee the way I like it, especially as I am based on the Amalfi Coast and meet most of my friends in Napoli, a city where coffee is a kind of religion and where the only drink allowed seems to be a burnt expresso. Untile few years ago when finally come "specialty coffee" places appeared here too. Since then there is nothing I like more than meeting my friends in one of these places and catch up enjoying a filter coffee. Add to that the fact that the crowd in these coffee shops is often very cool and you get why I love to spend my time there.
Oil pastel are the perfect medium to depict this kind of scene: they are so bright and vibrant and their texture is great to both cover vast areas of the sheet of paper and depict small details.
I hope this artwork will transport you to Napoli, relaxing at a coffee shop while doing some people watching. Agerola, September 2026.
Signed with my initials on the front and full signature at the back.
Fixed with 3 layers of fixative spray.
