About

I'm an illustrator based in Italy. I graduated from IED - Institute of Art and Design in 1996. Wildlife enthusiast, I worked as a natural history illustrator for magazines, field guides, food packaging and exhibitions, including Bologna Children's Book Fair.

In 1999 I started a 5-year collaboration with Dami Int., a publishing house specializing in picture books for pre-school children and started freelancing as a children's book illustrator shortly after.

I've illustrated numerous picture books and I currently work as freelancer for the publishing market in Italy, France and the U.K.
