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.

Ilove Bryce to bits, but you wouldn't believe you could do this in it - looks like the product of much more expensive software - you have trully mastered the tools of your trade...excellent

Eccomi... un po' in ritardo. Dalla thumbnail non pensavo nemmeno fosse tua, e questo mi fa molto piacere: la riprova che puoi scegliere qualsiasi soggetto e, comunque, la tua bravura salta agli occhi. Il modello del "fungo" piacevolissimo, e l'immagine sembra presa da un libro di illustrazioni di gran classe: ha quel tocco di "medioevo nel futuro" costipico della fantasy migliore. La scelta della colorazione perfetta per il soggetto. Questa una di quelle immagini che chiamo "three-buttoners": excellent, voto e lista delle preferite.
