I was born on March 1972 in Rome.
I live and work in Incisa Valdarno, a little town near Florence, in Italy.
About my job I am a self-taught.I have started to work in the world of illustration as a collaborator of Boni-Galante's art studio;I had worked there for one year and a half and after that I have decided to start to follow my own personal research in illustration .
Nowdays, I'm leading my art studio always and costantly increasing, where other collaborators work.
My artworks have been published in all over the world by big and small publishing houses such asMcRae Books, McGraw Hill, Blackbirch Press, Giunti, De Agostini, Utet, Mondadori, Franco Panini, Fabbri, Orpheus Books, Peter Bedrick Books, Hatier, Fleurus-Mame, Franklin Watts, Stoddart Kids, MacDonald Books, Cherrytree Books, Ladybird Books and many others...
Personally, I really love naturalistic illustration, even if with my collaborator Fabiano Fabbrucci and others we work in every aspect of popular scientific and educational illustration .
I'm now mostly working in digital format.

I'm also a teacher in Polimoda, an International Higher School of Fashion design in Florence, Italy.

I couldn't have made it as far as I have without the constant support and love of my wonderful Cinzia.
