I’ve always been fascinated by armored battles since I was a child.<\/p>\n

When I was 6-7 years old my parents took me every year to San Matteo Hospital in Pavia for health checks.
\nWhen I was a child I suffered a lot because I couldn’t walk, but I prefer to talk about this sensitive story another time. In Pavia all my family were guests of my father\u2019s brother and his family in the city of Legnano.<\/p>\n

Their home was in Piazza Monumento, where there is a statue by Enrico Butti, a bronze monument representing a warrior soldier with the sword facing the sky as a sign of victory. I still remember what I felt while observing the statue of this warrior<\/p>\n

I was fascinated by the Legnano warrior because, inside me, I also felt like a little warrior who was fighting his illness. The fact that I could not walk gave me the strengh to dream a great fantasy, in fact I was always fantasizing about battles against the wicked, soldiers on horseback in armor and with swords.<\/p>\n

I remember that one year we were in Legnano during the Palio, everyone was dressed in storical costums, there were the Knights on Horseback and the flag-waving parade.<\/p>\n

Over the years I have seen other festivals in this style, for example in Alcoy in Spain, the Moors against Christians, a festival dedicated to Saint George, which represents the historical battle of Christians who expelled Muslims from Spanish territory.<\/p>\n

Another very beautiful icon that I really like are the Sicilian puppets, warriors used by puppeteers to entertain the public or as a social condemnation against evil.<\/p>\n

Colored paintings for Hotel and Bed & Breakfast furnishings<\/p>\n

On this page you can admire several paintings that I have made over the years, they represent warriors on horseback with armor, colored paintings with white horses and soldiers with swords and spears fighting against evil.<\/p>\n

Various works are ideal for decorating hotels and B&Bs but also for houses with classic and modern furnishings.
\nMany of these modern paintings were made by inserting Sicilian puppets and other symbols of Sicily.<\/p>\n

The puppets and the symbol of Trinacria, warriors and soldiers on horseback, were the imaginary friends of my childhood, because with my disease I couln\u2019t use my legs, I had many battles with them and I never give up. I particularly remember one day of my childhood when I went up a green hill, with a white horse and a red saddle, and raised my victory flag shouting to everyone “Mum I won!”.<\/p>\n
