So he began to frequent the studio of Gino Wells, who encouraged him to enroll doing Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, where he attended for three years the School of Nude and graduated.

He began his studies of various artists, including those of Ottone Rosai and Settala. He always traveled and stayed in Italy and abroad in search of new images and ideas, much to move to live on the French Riviera. The artist appears as a painter of Tuscan landscapes with endless variations on the theme of the Tuscan countryside with its villages and its cities.
