Present Magazine Kansas City Voice

In Italy, if you say 'Kansas Ciy', you remember our great Alberto Sordi (actor).
Well 2 days ago I was surfing on the net and I saw this Magazine (PresentMagazine.com) full of photos about Nature. Spring is here and I'm photographing the world around me. Why not send some pictures?
I didn't known if This magazine was international or not and I sent my photos to Pete.

Well Pete replies to me after only an hour and He said 'While we normally focus on publishing material with some connection to Kansas City since we're a locally-based online magazine, your images are so colorful and striking that it would be a pleasure to feature them in our Take Your Shot series'
Pete, we are connected through Alberto Sordi...

and so, now, I am into Present Magazine!
Fly to have a look!

Spring Drawings

Through a new month...

and a new Season...

Drawing with Flu

When you have the influenza You can do a few things...You can sleep if your nose says yes (and my nose says NO and every 3 minutes I cough and cough, bleah), You can watch TV...but watching TV doesn't relax me..or you can read books or you can draw. I read and I draw, on my sofa

my world is full of strange people, fun people that live into the flowers and around the flower and on trees. My flu, I know, fly away if I draw! bye bye...

homecoming with muses
