CREATIVE STATEMENT
My love for architecture illustration began during my university days in Rome. I recall studying for a drawing exam that led me all over the city to sketch ancient ruins en-plein-air.
It was a defining moment when I realized my passion for drawing. I’ve explored many mediums and themes over the years, but I noticed that I kept going back to drawing urban sceneries and cityscapes, so I decided to hone in on this interest and I developed my illustration style which is colourful and rich in details with the ability to captivate the viewer's attention. I believe that a successful architecture illustration is one that has the ability to bring joy and virtually transport the viewer to new places. As an illustrator who specializes in architecture illustration, I nurture my interest by collecting stimulating imagery of places I've been or would like to visit, or that remind me of my Italian roots. The research that goes into every single image I produce is what I enjoy most about architecture illustration.
