“Per me la pittura ad acquerello è come una danza: a volte sono io a guidare, altre volte sono i colori, la carta, l'ambiente a guidarmi, creando qualcosa di unico e vivo. E in questa danza, non ho trovato partner migliori degli acquerelli DANIEL SMITH. La ricchezza e la vivacità dei loro colori, la consistenza e la natura organica della loro granulazione, la qualità e la bellezza dei loro pigmenti, offrono una vita intera di espressione creativa.”
