Bruno Di Maio

I was born in North Africa to Italian parents who were among the first farmers of that land. I started to mess around with coloured pencils early on; it was my only fun in the sunny loneliness of that great farm. A long illness stuck me in bed where I developed a passion for reading and fables and the frantic need to represent my fantastic and fabulous friends with my coloured pencils. All of this, set ablaze perhaps by the implacable African sun, propelled me toward Art.
