Little Passing Thoughts
Little Passing Thoughts
Introduction
Orfeo Tagiuri is constantly sketching in his small notebook, capturing fleeting moments and emotions with his black pen. Sometimes, he discards his drawings, feeling they don't quite meet his standards. Other times, he shares them with friends for a laugh, to commemorate a moment, or even sells them to strangers who resonate with his universal expressions. This compact book, featuring over 350 of Orfeo's drawings, is designed to be your companion wherever you go. Open it whenever you need a pause, a spark of inspiration, or a moment to breathe.
“Each of these drawings is fished out from the river of little passing thoughts. I don’t know where they come from but sometimes I take the time to gently scoop them up and set them down. They are a great joy, relief and meditation to make. I hope you can feel that” — Orfeo Tagiuri
