Painting surrealist works, inspired by the great portraits of the past

He moved to Sardinia, he met local artists, even participating in art exhibitions. https://it-it.facebook.com/ettorealdo.delvigo.5 He paints subjects that vegetate in his subconscious, but doing so is aware of not being aware of what he paints.

His first solo show was in 1979, until he made paintings for a church in Sassari in 2000. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL-CZnT4A3M His surrealist works are inspired by the great portraits of the past. The pictorial technique used by him is particular, because he uses an airbrush. At the time of his elementary schools, he was the designer of the school newspaper.

His, is a form of spontaneous painting, in search of the unfathomable creativity of dreams, beyond reality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gylOsEowFOI Having cultivated a passion for music, he had the opportunity to perform on some dates on the Black Sabbath tour as a drummer.
