About

I am an Italian self taught artist and I have been creating paintings, illustrations and books for about 15 years. 
In this blog I share art tutorials, tips, news about illustrated books by fellow artists and much more: follow the blog to get art secrets and to discover art tutorials and beautiful books!
 
I have loved drawing and painting since I was a child, and, through the troubles of life, my love for art has always been my refuge.
I work as a freelance painter and illustrator and I am proud to say my passion is my job.
I love Symbolism, Italian Renaissance, Romanticism, Fantasy art and perhaps far too many other things to list here them all!

I attend to an art school and I have been studying tempera on wood technique for three years now. 

 I also attended to a botanical watercolor course held in Rome, at the botanical gardens, where I was introduced to a special watercolor technique, that I call "dry technique", and that I cherished and now apply to my fantasy paintings.

I am also experienced in digital painting and I am currently open for commissions too.
