About me

I am an Italian drawing artist born in Palermo Sicily.

I work as a freelance illustrator, comic artist and concept designer, as well as a drawing instructor specialising in anatomy.

Having drawn all my life, my academic study began in high school where I covered traditional painting techniques. I then studied at the Grafimated Cartoon school in Palermo from , learning anatomy, perspective, inking, colouring techniques and various comic styles.

I have been teaching since 2009, helping aspiring artists to understand how to think geometrically and create a 3D world on a flat piece of paper.

I am heavily inspired by the great Italian artists of the past and aspire to a classical style in my art and concept designs, drawing on my Italian heritage.
