In the heart of a Comics School. Last week I got an invitation from Paola Fiorentino, a talented colorist and illustrator I had the pleasure to meet recently, to visit a students exhibition organized by the local branch of Scuola Internazionale di Comics.I thought that my creative readers would have been interested in discovering how a local Art school could be.
