Here I am! Hi everybody :)
What about me...Well,I'd love to make my living a pleasant and fruitful experience:I have always liked to paint and make drawings, but I never went to any school.
I love to write, and I like to express my soul in as many ways as I can think of...I don't consider myself an artist, though:I just love art. For more about me, just click here and visit my site.BIOI was born in Firenze, 17th of April 1977.
I am fond of everything which celebrates life and humanity:from writing, to painting, to music till sports and nature, all that captures my attention becomes an interest of mine.
If I'd die tomorrow, I would feel my life has been a worthy one already, but for every day that passes, I feel always more curious about it.
To be an artist (although I don't consider myself so,) means to have a personal vision about all that happens, equally outside than inside.For me it means also to try to connect with other's spirits in unexpectable ways and have an endless will of knowledge, and endless will to discover and test yourself and everything else, without fears, but with all possible emotions in the quest, and from the quest.
The world around it's therefore the best inspiration, all that is into it can touch the inner chords of my soul, although I can't say which way till it doesn't happen.And everytime it happens, it's a reveal, a miracle, and the vibes are the best one can feel.
Then sometimes I watch the blue sky, and I give shape to my heart and mind, and I float around... and smile for my live is really like I want it to be.
I have temporarily suspended my career as University Researcher, testing myself as Administrative Manager right now, and I still asking myself if what I got finally was awareness or disillusion, but anyway, it's my attitude to never regret anything that I made consciously.Let's give life a new try.
I am very fond of Foreign Cultures, they enlarge also my artistical perceivement of life, and it's something I find absolutely enriching.
I have never learnt English, so forgive me if I am not good at speaking nor writing it.
I can speak and write in French, I can read Spanish, I know Ancient Latin and Greek.
And of course, I am Italian so, my Mother Tongue has got no mystery for me.
Hooray for Dante! ;)

I was just wondering... and you've exceeded my expectations! Excellent drawing, I especially think your work on details can be really appreciated! :-)

You know how much it all means to me my lovely Melania. :) (And umm...I am a man, you other people reading this...she has just made a spelling error above ;) I'm as much a man as a man can be ;)) Thank you for all that you are and give me...all the years that has been..and all that will come.. :) I am forever grateful to the Gods above for finding you, that day years ago.. :) About the drawing itself..just wonderful! I have waited for you to do a drawing with that subject..I know you have find it difficult before..but you really nailed it. :) It's so wonderful and so rich of details and spirit. I love it so much..and will be so happy to put it up on my wall when I go back to KK later :) And I am happy I have made you love the lands up north :) and our mythology...you know why ;) But thank you honey..for everything.. :)

Hey!!!!!, wonderful work, excellent detail:)

Nagishiva... I trust there's a lot of testosteron in your body :) Spelling errors can cause quite a stir though. Anyway, Meli, the clothing is totally excellent. It's a bit different from your usual work, because the linework is so clean. Now that I look at it longer... is... is... is that a Vicky??? Blasphemy... super hero female? Check! Sword? Check! Big breasts... double check! (after all it's healthy to look at breasts) So Poser has a "gallimel dial" now? Hmmm :p
jgeorge
What gorgeous hair!
gallimel
No Vicky man ;) It took me more than one hour JUST for that armour.. sigh ;) I am ready to make a coloured version of this soon or later :) Glad all of you liked it.. and especially you my sweet Micke :) I corrected the "her" thingie sorry my dear!!!!!!!!!!! It's good to be back, but I am so happy after the long weekend I could paint a wall of ten thousands feets in a moment ;) Hugs everyone.. life is so beautiful... :)
Synapse
Spectacular :-)
In a way Meli, this is how I see you... I can only look up in awe to someone as strong and unbending as you. For me your feminine strength shows through in this drawing :-)
Kisses, and hope to see you soon :-)

Such fantastic detail Meli:) The hair, the posture and the expression are just perfect for this character. You're just getting better and better:))
Heart'Song
What a wonderful birthday present! You are so sweet

How strange (and wonderful) to read my own language under a drawing you made. What a great birthday gift for nagishiva!! You captured the strength and pride of Brunhilde just wonderfully. and it is a pleasure to view the composition with all it's details.

Excellent drawing, and a fantastic birthday gift. It is truly one of a kind.

This is spectacular Meli! Thank you so much for sharing it :D HUGS

Ohhhh beautiful I just adore woman in armor (i would be very pleased if you made more of them) :) brilliant work and very nice details ;)
cynlee
someone's just going to have to get you a bigger scanner :] looking at this marvel, i can see it took a lot of work & is one of your best drawings- the detail, subject & background are superb- you, the darling of the galleries, have a heart of gold! hugs~
enax
I absolutely love this work! Vote4it. One of your best, superbo!!!
erviin
You really did this by hand on paper with pencil? WOW. This is... I'm speachless. Have to check the rest of your things.
RedundantlyAbundant
That trademark hair of yours is outrageously good. Do you read a lot of "Heavy Metal" magazine? Looks like it came from the "Conan the Barbarian Saga." This reminds me that I have to download "Cry of the Valkyries." I love that song.
gallimel
No way Matty :) No heavy metal mags for me, though my musical taste is quite wide, I never read proper magazines of metal at all :) But I thank you for the compliments (and everyone else's above) you make me always happy this way, when I see you like my lil thingies :) Hugs :)
borsy
Absolutely beautiful, Meli!!!!! Your pencil drawings always have so much life in them!! Your beautiful spirit comes shining through in all your artwork!!!
lemonjim
tack, so mycket!
frndofyaweh
lil thingies? Lol! Just too beautiful, to be called little things. Exceptional details on the armor! Your patience is fantastic. When I have to draw something repetive, I sometimes give up. For a friends birthday; this is outstanding and generous! If you look in my gallery, you'll see a picture I never finished, because the palm tree became repetive.

Beautiful image, and so much attention to the little details... this amazes me. Excellent work, extremely beautiful!
Tedz
WoWWWW!!! This is real beaut...so much effort...the Pencil, I feel is Your Best Tool, it Works well, with Your Heart. Here is the last gelato...as My Freezer has De-Frosted, and someone has stolen My Foxy Babe Code Book :(
Zargent
Lovely image and everything in proportion (unlike mine ) and I like the Brazier ( Fire-bowl) in the back-ground. One thing that I can see that looks a bit odd is her bottom lip. Looks like she has a split bottom lip. And then off-course there is the small matter of it looks like she has 6 fingers on the hand holding the helmet. Hugs ~Z~
Alrisha
you drawing very cool! ExtreMELy beauty!
cockjuice
Your drawing ability from your mind is an extreme talent. All proprotions seem correct but it is the detail that seems such a perfect portrayal that life can provide and memory seems to over see. Such details in the face, plates, and chain male in between, the character is very vivid as though you had a model. No questions arise from a vague representation. Only answers from a detailed portrait. I am glad to see your talent flourish dear. A wonderful sentiment and gift to a man who adorns your webpages, has met your family, and has traveled with you. Since your languages are similar, it seems a difficult one to learn. I bow to this gesture and all it's meaning. Cheers to this friendship! Hugs to both.

How beautiful! There is so much detail in here, yet it doesn't look too "busy" or anything. Wonderfully done! Wish I had that kinda talent ^_^
j-art
oooook, first i had you to tell, if you are drawing such fine pencildrawings i dont need any coloure anymore ( you know i love your coloured works), second - wow, third - uff, you really got it with this one, i love it - very very very well done --- hmmmm but i think i dont trust you anymore - i remember you said you are no artist, and your whole work remembers me at an artist - so something must be wrong, very very wrong - think you made your jokes with me, cause you are an artist - be sure - again excellent done. see you
SophiaDeer
Magnificent image Meli!! This is fantastic. Your artwork has me in awe and this is no exception. Gorgeous and a big brava for you!!!
Calanthe
I think you're just great! I love that warrior woman. Absolutely excellent! :)
