The colors, which are created on the painter's palette, are what most distinguish a painting from a drawing. The artist portrayed is the painter Américo de Carvalho e Sousa.
This image is part of the “Photographing the Process of Creation” project. This is a photographic research project whose aim is to investigate the essence of painting and what painting implies, mainly in terms of the thought and inspiration of the painter.

Pietro Cenini is a fine-art photographer born and raised in Italy and trained in the United States. Today, he lives and works between Brazil and his native country.
His artistic goal is to capture our inner world and the deep emotions and moods hidden from view. He manages to make them visible and felt through his photographs. His images evoke alternative perceptions of what is visually apparent, creating synesthesia that transforms visual impressions into sounds or smells.
With a passion for the classical piano and a career in science, Pietro Cenini moved to California in 1994 to study at the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara. The fusion of these two facets of his life allowed him to approach photography in a unique and innovative way. His unwavering technical skills and scientific precision allow him to translate his artistic sensibility, strong sense of aesthetics, and vivid imagination into visual works of art.
His post-production process is substantial, investing an average of 30 to 40 hours per image and sometimes even up to 120 hours. He often combines multiple shots, though this is rarely noticeable in the end result, which can feel real despite sometimes looking impossible.
As an artist and researcher, Pietro Cenini follows the guidance of his soul and does not limit himself to a successful style, because that would mean that it was already conquered and revealed.
For 16 years until 2010, he worked as a photographer for several UN agencies and travel magazines. Since 1999, he has been teaching photography and Photoshop, both privately and at art institutions. His work has been represented by several photographic agencies around the world.
For the past 20 years, he has devoted his personal production exclusively to artistic photography. In 2015–2016, he spent a year in Edinburgh, where he became totally involved in a personal project that consisted of photographing the creative process of painting.
