Happy Valentines. To your untranslatable hair too.
Watercolor, blue Ink, pencils.

That moment when you believe you have the perfect drawing, and you dread ruining it with color.

Also, it adds to the drama that this one is a portrait of my son. I am planning a series and decided to begin with him. Happy Valentines 💘

And the artsy wrapping by the toddlers hanging around the house. Andrea puts on Elton John when he senses I need something soothing

This is our longseller, the KOLIBRI stand. Colibrì as in steady and ultralight, K as just stronger 💘 hand finished and numbered. @cremacaffe.bsky.social

A spare inked copy on cotton paper, just to warm up with watercolors. I used the green of our old windows, as this one is a memory of our home in Scicli.

Preliminary palette on #procreate. Next, watercolors on cotton paper. I am taking all the time in the world with this one.

I got the inking as I wanted this time. Watercolors, next.

Micro painting setup. It is a portrait of my son. I usually paint figures in a very instinctive way, yet with him it felt like a survey of every curve and muscle. I inked it once, I am going to ink it twice. And I am making color schemes. Turning 4 to 5 years old in one image, to make it last longer

I would keep the wrapping. I host art and language play groups for children my son's age. Then I reuse some of our production as wrappers for Cremacaffè shop. It's a bit like getting a message in the bottle for the people receiving it.

I made a fold out model for a remote led home makeover in Palermo. The model was mainly meant to help the kids take ownership of the new home. Yet it proved useful in getting everyone on board with design choices.

Cupolette.
Santa Maria la Nova in Scicli was built by the same architect who designed the Quattro Canti in Palermo. Hence the familiar shape of the facade and domes on the sides. A friend made this hat for me shaped as one of the domes ✨
