Have a look at my Instagram!

Hello guys! Today I want to share with you an important news. I’m going to publish very soon my first @skillshare class: “Learn Illustrator: create your unique greeting card”. If you ever wanted to learn the basics of Adobe Illustrator or you just want to understand how to design a greeting card for a special occasion or to sell on your online shop, this is the right course for you. I will teach how to gather inspiration, the “sketching” phase, how to vectorize your drawings and color them and how to have a ready-to-print file! Some tips&tricks for you and a lot of information about designing a special card. I will share with you more info in the coming days! I hope you’ll like it :-) it’s my first class and I worked on it for a long time: I am very happy now to share some of my knowledge with you! .

Here a poster I have designed last month for a special occasion! (And a special person)

Today is my Daddy’s birthday! And luckily he doesn’t use social media and he is not going to see this! 😁 it’s a little surprise my sister is going to print and show him soon for his birthday party. Unfortunately I’ll miss it because I cannot go back to Italy right now... (sad things that happen when you are an expat) but thank Internet we have video calls!! I’ve posted the entire process: just scroll to watch it. Thanks @procreate 😁 .

It’s #pattern time again :-) a #summer project for a #tropical #fruits pattern. I really enjoy the process when I have to create a #repeating pattern. First designing the single elements, then deciding how to place them together (they have to work and create a balance), then the colors and at the end ... try to see if the repetition works globally. Oh yes and the best part is imaging different products with the pattern just made 🎉 .

I have a lot of ideas for new projects but it’s not always easy to put these ideas on paper! That’s why I created this artwork: to try to win @homsweethom scholarship for the class “passion to paid 2019” and discover tips&tricks to complete a passion project that can help my career to evolve and proceed. Illustration is my passion and my job and lately I’ve happily discovered hand-lettering thanks to Lauren: I would like to learn more and more. I’ve been living in nyc for three years now, after I left Italy, and it’s not always easy to work in a foreign country, with new rules, using a different language (but at the same time it’s super cool!) and I think that having the chance to learn directly from Lauren will be the right thing to do for me in this period of my life, where everything is changing so fast (it’s life: no comfort zone allowed 😁🙈). Anyway, I hope you like it... always loved to draw animals!! .

Hello everybody! I am back in #nyc and on #instagram 😛 I had a great time in Italy but now it’s time to be back at work: new ideas, new projects, a lot of inspiration! Do you ever feel like this after a vacation? .

Look at my stories to see the #animation because I don’t know why I cannot upload it here today 🤷🏻‍♀️ technology’s mysteries! .
