I am Piero’s father. Piero visited Vermont twice and you have been the highlight of his visits. I have been thinking that I ought to thank you for your generous encouragement to Piero’s painting.
Even if Piero, since he was a child, has always been close to pencils, colors, etc., it is only after having been in your studio that he has taken arts as a more “serious” activity. He is really making a great sacrifice to find the many hours a week during which he practices at Paolo Kervisher’s studio. I am very glad to see Piero expressing himself drawing and painting. I believe you have been a great catalyst!
The occasion to thank you is that Piero has taken home the works he’s worked on during this winter. It is quite different from last year(’s) pencil drawings. The human figure is still at the center of his interest, but now there is also color.
