Rione Cassero, Foligno 2015 - exhibition of illustrators and cartoonists

Yesterday I had the pleasure of visiting on the closing day, the rich and varied exhibition organized by friend, well-known cartoonist and illustrator, Moreno Chiacchiera.
Rione Cassero at Foligno, Italy. More than 90 illustrators, with the most varied techniques in one of the antique palaces of Foligno.

 Together with my artwork of friend, writer and humorist Marco Cannavò

Colored Pencil Drawings: The Swimmer

Colored pencil is a medium I have always enjoyed. It's interesting building up colors, either from light to darker ones, or even from dark colors to lighter ones.  Both techniques are possible.

I also enjoy erasing as I draw and build up tones, or I can create white with a hint of color. 

I love to swim and often swimmers are shown in my drawings and cartoons.
