He handed me a cold beer and invited us in to use his space for some indoor photographs. That was when we saw his paintings, like this one which depicts “what happens to a girl just 6 months after she moves to New York.”

My cousin Marzia was visiting from Italy with her friends. Her boyfriend, Edoardo, is a photographer.
