Flowers, animals, plants, mushrooms, fruits and veggies... nature is the main inspiration behind my whimsical and dreamy world and is featured in all my illustrations and patterns.

I’m an illustrator and surface designer from Milan, Italy. My studio is currently based in this city, but sometimes I enjoy the digital nomad life. Traveling is my favorite way to gather inspirations for my illustrations. I take pictures of the flora I find and then create my drawings once I’m back in my studio. All my illustrations are hand-drawn with colored pencils, scanned onto my laptop, and arranged into patterns and illustrations using Affinity.

I’m a self taught illustrator who discovered an unexpected love for drawing flowers during a difficult period in my teenager years. While studying fashion design, I was introduced to the world of patterns and surface design, and immediately saw many possible applications of my floral illustrations. After a brief experience in the fashion industry, when I lost my job because of COVID, I took this as an opportunity to take the leap and to build my career around my art.

I founded my own brand in 2021 and, between my travels, I’ve seen my artworks featured on wallpapers, home decor, greeting cards and fabrics. I’ve worked with small businesses, independent clients and large brands through licensing or commissions. Every day, I feel so grateful to do what I love for a living and to bring joy, healing and beauty to many people through my art. That’s why I call it the expression of my inner garden: it represents my feelings, dreams, memories and emotions. And that’s exactly what I’m aiming to: to help people to grow their own inner garden.
