I was born and raised in Italy and I work at graphics and advertising design. I started drawing comics with pencils, brushes and inks since I was a kid, taking inspiration from Roberto Raviola (aka Magnus) and Sergio Toppi, two of the greatest artists of all time, in my opinion.
In the following years I have engaged myself to create surreal landscapes using airbrush, enamel paint and various mixed media, until I bought an Apple computer and discovered software such as Bryce, Painter and Adobe Photoshop which are now, along with a Wacom tablet, my favorite tools to bring to life my ideas.
Fantasy and Sci-Fi are both my favorite genres. You'll probably notice that I'm a big fan of Myst-Riven saga. Actually, after the Internet there are many other sources of inspiration to look than was possible in previous years; There is a huge number of artists from which to draw ideas and learn to improve my work, but some people still inspire my work: Roger Dean, Ridley Scott, James Cameron, H.R. Giger, H.P. Lovecraft, J.R.R. Tolkien, to name a few. Hope you enjoy my work and come back soon.

Ok, prima clicco l'Hot20, prima di dimenticarmene :) __ Sono ancora una volta senza parole, Carlo! In parte perchi "Langolieri" sono in cima alla mia hit-parade, ma soprattutto per l'incredibile realismo e l'uso magistrale dei materiali. La luce straordinaria, la composizione anche. E grazie per il credit... aver partecipato anche solo in minima parte all'ispirazione di quest'immagine mi rende incredibilmente orgoglioso!

Oh no! I was afraid of this! This really proves that computergames are bad for the health! :) Fantastic job Carlo! Looks more like a photo than a render. Not bad for a "playground" app as Bryce! ;) Hot20 next!!! Hmmm...olives and cheese. Is that good? :)
