I grew up in Porto San Giorgio, a charming Italian town on the Adriatic coast, where I found inspirations reading old fantasy stories and ancient myths from northern Europe. Not far from there, is the State Institute of Art where I learned the basics of my craft before changing paths and graduating as a Childhood Communities Assistant.
However, the graphic arts were always my main passion and soon I was able to make that my main occupation. I have gained my twenty years of experience in illustration and cartooning, playing creative roles for many projects from the earliest stages of their development on to completion.
I love drawing, painting, and when I am in the mood, also modeling odd tangible things. Sometimes, I also have a bit of free time to spend on my hobby as a board games enthusiast!
