About me

Observing, drawing and designing have always been a huge part of my life. Almost anything would
have triggered an idea for me to sketch or to create. From curtains to a dress, tree twigs to a house...
I gravitate towards bright, intense colours, using colour pencil and acrylic paint as mediums and
Photoshop.
Influenced by my background in architecture, I visualize in 3D, often leaning towards paper
collage as a technique. Cutting each character out and then placing them together to interact and to
create a narrative, I feel like I am bringing the story and their personalities alive,
Fascinated by human characters, furry creatures, velvet mushrooms, among many other elements that spark my imagination. I like my illustrations to be emotionally expressive, full of movement and uplifting, with a hint of humour.
Drawing on my experience as a fashion designer, I love to depict the essence of fabrics and textures of different materials.
I have been honored to receive various awards for my figurative paintings, sculptures and illustrations.
Recently I have been awarded first prize in a Zine international competition showcased in Gibraltar, St
Vincent and Vienna and in ICA London.
My picture book The Great Rumble was published this November and was promoted during the Gibraltar Literary Festival 2025.
