I have six cycles of negatives-colored photos :
Arabesques
Home theatre
Alchemic of a Dream
Coloreds
Studio
Utopia
 
and 3 new black-and-white cycles:
 
TEOgen
SCRITTURA ITALIANA/ Lettere italiane
Akhmatova .Petersburg. Poems
CORPUS SIGNUM ( black-and-white and color photos)

the negatives are also manually colored and presented in author's print with toners .

 

Artistic credo
Whatever I do I am focused on the subjective perception and the colour, for it has some inner vibration that is capable of producing an unpredictable interplay of paints and emulsion with the texture of the real life in the frame.
