I was born in 1969, I live and work in Padova, near Venice, Italy.
I have been a professional illustrator since 1991, working for major italian publishers and magazines. After a long experience with traditional illustration, I now prefer the digital image, spanning from children's
books and cartoons to scientific and realistic painting, to graphic design.
