Napoli

Inspired by the beautiful drawings series of Simo Cappechi’s “Napoli Verticale” I offered myself the time to sit and stay at a small alley in the city center.
After a while, a person popped up on the window looking down at what I was doing…

“I’m in Naples, right in the historic city center… am I safe?” – that was my thought.
Of course, I was safe. I was creating a drawing on a sketchbook, nothing else. And the city values the art of on-location drawing, so it was really nice to stay there and chat with all the people who stopped by to see and watch what I was doing.

This March I going to Naples again!
