I grew up in the south of Italy and ended up in the Netherlands 6 years ago. When flying caterpillars and pink dragons started to hunt me during night and day dreams I realized it was time to put them on paper. The more I drew the more I wanted to draw. So here I am, trying to be an illustrator in a country which welcomes dreamers and support strange people that quit their promising job, become mothers and start their career as illustrators all in the same year. In spite of its rain and suspicious-looking food (yes, I do match the cliché of the food-obsessed Italian), Holland has a very positive vibe and it's a big source of inspiration for my work. The steps of my adventure in the illustrated world, together with a little bit of my life with Dutch hubby and adorable baby boy are collected on my website.
