This is a special a very special funny project for me, my first collaboration with an artist that means a lot for me and for all the fantasy world in italy and the world too: Antonio Leveque . Considered by a lot of people the "poet of fantasy", is really incredible how many famous fantastic piece he did in the last 20 years.
This is a very unique piece by him in particular because is a "vintage" figure that he made more than 10 years ago, and he never find the way to finish it. At the end he decided to do it and he gave me the opportunity to paint it.
What i try to do is to force in some way the "children toys" look of the figure, immagine it like an illustration on book for kids.
All the figure is a challenge about primary and secondary colors and their interaction. it was really hard to find the correct equilibrium but at the end i really love how it turn out...
The only dark thing... we il clearly the evil queen painted in the exact opposite of the rest adding a lot of green sensation on her skin to let the apple red turn out from the base.
At the end i am really happy about the final result of this piece
thank you very much Antonio for the opportunity to paint one of your piece of art and thank you to let me come back again in the fairytales.
