Projects: After more than fifteen years doing mainly historical and mythological illustrations for different written and television media in various countries, I feel like a time traveler (with many books and brushes in my backpack) who never stops discovering and learning, and who has the privilege of opening for others a kind of illustrated window to a recreated past, and currently in the process of doing it also to fantasy and the future. I have also had the opportunity to make many and very diverse book covers (a dream come true for a devourer of letters like me) and to illustrate other types of stories, tales, novels (what can be better than a good story?), while I sail new seas in which to continue doing more and better.
