Hello!
I’m an Italian illustrator living in London whose path was anything but a straight line.
After wearing quite a few different hats, from retail to graphic design, I’ve realized that creating art is where I truly belong.
Driven by my passion for old myths and folklore, I pour my love for visual narrative into every piece I create - often inspired by untamed nature and anything fantasy.

Working with Ulfeid3 has been a dream! From the very first message they were willing to work with me to make my vision come true. Their communication is some of the best I have had when it comes to commissioning art. The process was a joy and the art is stunning! 10/10 would recommend working with!
