The nickname "Innovari" (meaning innovation or renewal in Latin) has been with me since I came across Syd Mead's prototype car design of the same name in his wonderful book "Sentinel." This work, with its air of "a new era of design"—along with the works of many SF and fantasy illustrators (such as Chris Foss, Peter Elson, Angus McKie, Chris Moore, Jim Burns, and Fred Gambino)—drove me over the years to do my own artwork.
"Fantastic fiction" always had a remarkable weight in my whole personal and professional life. I have been a professional SF author, I edited a fantasy and horror movie magazine, and for ten years have been chief modelmaker in my own special effects company.
In the last decade my creativity has leaned towards computer graphics and 3D illustrations in particular—with which I wanted to create professional artworks for books and magazines. I'm happy to say that in recent years this objective has been fulfilled, with many works sold worldwide to private and corporate clients.
Currently I'm building my worlds in Bologna, Italy, where I share a home with my wife Raffaella and our cats Leeloo and Merlin.

I used to love Emilio Salgari, Sandokan the Tiger of Malaysia was one of my heroes. I probably would like this book!! Excellent illustration, crispy and appealing! How fortunate must be to have a job in which you can enjoy your creativity! Salute

cool cover art - a little more of grungy look on the main character to fit the classic border might give it a finishing touch.

Love the liberty style of yours ! You should try a "private" version of yours with the same ext frame and a photoshop manipulation of the "red orchid" woman....
