Gallery Comment ::
"End of a Working Day" is saturated with color and atmosphere. A depth is captured and created through the various plays of light. Movement is apparant from the slightly out-of focus shot.

YOU CAN'T START A FIRE WITHOUT A SPARK.
 Bruce Springsteen

Born in Rome , Italy.
In the early sixties , following her father employee in an Italian Oil Company, has the chance to travel a lot and to satisfy her natural curiosity. The experience of living two years in Patagonia, Argentina, land of great visual impact,  helps to  develop her artistic inclination. After an initial period of approach  to photographic technique, and attending several courses and exhibitions,  in 1983 she wins her first contests and publishes on specialized magazines.In 1993 she becomes a freelance photographer and begins to work for different agencies.In 1996 is in Brussels, Belgium continues to work for a local agency.
Specialized in food (from the preparation of the recipe to the final shot), still life and travel.In late years  the digital elaboration of her photos  gives her the possibility to improve her artistic expression with results that get closer to the work of a painter, never forgetting  her photographic roots. Her target has always been to see around her, looking for that “magic moment” in every day life, as the Maestro Henry Cartier Bresson teaches,   when lines, colours and shapes combine harmoniously together and only a trained photographic eye can capture.
She lives and works in Rome .
