“DIEGO AT WORK IN STUDIO” We know very little about this photo of our YOUNG DIEGO or of the amazing painting he was in the midst of creating. The only identifying marks on the image from Helga’s Shoebox were “Clinoggia – Italy 66112”. We presume the photo was taken in the very late fifties or early sixties, perhaps in Italy

Diego Voci; Artist of a Thousand Faces. Internationally collected artist ANTONIO DIEGO VOCI (VOH-chee)(1920-1985)
The Diego Voci Project Team, all-volunteer group, enhances the awareness, value of the great body of artwork and to archive his works with the Diego Voci Estate in Germany.
Marsha Largent Piper (daughter of Dr. Ogden Brown, collector of Diego Voci and once USA agent for Diego Voci) just sent the Diego Voci Project an image of herself with Diego during the 1973 Diego Voci Exhibition at the Broadmoor in Boulder, Colorado. Marsha recalls laughing often with Diego.
In 1973, when Diego was staying with collector Dr. Ogden Brown in Colorado, Diego was at his creative best. He experimented with Glass paint right in the Brown’s kitchen. Diego cooked and painted with glass paint. Yes Diego had to “cook” the glass paint.
From Marsha’s collection here is a wild example by Diego:
