Aldo hello. Great work you have here, I specially like "Skinnydipping" Alex.

Love your "Men in Black" paintings.They make me wonder are they KGB or FBI or are they just going to the shop for a bottle of milk.......

You have relocated well, into the sunlit climes of France. Your love for the warmth of the Côte d''Azur translates well in the heavy shadows contrasting to the brightly lit crisp white shirts. It''s interesting that you have stepped back into the 40''s and 50''s, a golden age of youth, modest cars and reserved dress. I like the way white shirts are rolled up or open at the collar to express the relaxed atmosphere of your figures in France. I identify also with your fascination with the art deco of Paris and Montparnasse. It makes me look forward to my next trip back to France and by-gone university days in Paris. - Allan

Your paintings are absolutely stunning! They are very reminiscent of John Singer Sargent or Degas. Vibrant and full of colourful life and movement. Truly beautiful!
