"Mario Sughi, or as he's more commonly known, Nerosunero, is a digital cartoonist/Illustrator from Italy who combines subtle humorous elements with a consistent loose artistic style that's reminiscent of English Pop artist David Hockney."

Mario Sughi's works are available as Archival Giclee Print on 315gsm acid free Museum Quality natural white textured watercolor paper. A Giclée is a recognized and collectable category of fine art. Giclee prints are guaranteed to not fade or age and have a colour life of 75-100 years. The Giclee printing process ensures a print with brilliant colour and razor sharp detail. Giclee prints are so vibrant and true they are often mistaken for the original artwork.

"I love the sense of mystique that Mario Sughi captures with his illustrations. There always seems to be a simmering storyline brewing below the surface of the frame."

"Very cool, modern and often edgy work from Dublin-based, Italian illustrator Mario Sughi."
written by dirtymouse.co.uk, UK , June 2008

 

------------------------
 
“Simplicity of the line and clever use of colors are central in Mario’s work. I love the way he captures everyday moments and commonplace themes, and turns them into something new that mirror cultural identity and style of Dublin and its people.”
