How long have you been an artist? What is your specialty? Where do u find inspiration?
I start drawing about one year ago, and I do mostly black ink on white paper. I love line art, close to tattoo style, it’s so clean I have such admiration for tattoo artists because they have such perfect and clean lines..!

Do you have a job in the art industry? If So, what’s one thing you don’t like about it? If no, where would your dream job be?
I’m also graphic designer for an association, which helps children to discover music, art, theatre… Really rewarding! I like having both of these occupations, graphic design for the association and illustration for myself.

Do you have a favorite Artist?
Not so much, I follow about 500 instagram accounts, and I love each one of them. If you don’t know @ariarosso, @jeanandre, @liamashurst, @peta.heffernan you should have a look at them!

What is one accomplishment you’ve had in your life? Does not need to be art related.
I guess succeed to make a living of my art is one of my biggest accomplishment… Also I had the chance to travel a lot and it was something I wanted to do for a long time…

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?
If only I could even say where I would be tomorrow….

If you could meet and talk to any person in the world, dead or alive, who would it be?
I’d say my grand-mother. I never had the chance to meet her and I think that it would be great and helpful to better understand where and from who I come from..

How is one way you make money with your art?
I sell prints and design illustrations and logo designs for people.

If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be and why?
I had the chance to travel a lot and I’ve been to all the place I really wanted to see. But I would like to go to Japan someday….

What is your favorite brand of art supply? Whether it’s a brand of pencils or brand of camera or software
I always use “Micron Pen” to draw. I can’t say if they are the best but it suits me!
