Talent doesn’t matter. Natural predisposition doesn’t exist.
Drawing is a skill you can learn at any age. If you want to give shape to your ideas, you’re in the right place.
My goal is to help each person develop their own expressive abilities, offering them the tools they need to grow confidently.
Each lesson is tailored to the student and shaped by the connection we build together. We can focus on the fundamentals — like anatomy, shading, and perspective — or take a more expressive, storytelling-driven approach through comics and illustration.
My lessons are open to people of all ages and learning styles, including those with special needs.
Learning to draw means learning to understand yourself and the world around you.
My teaching method is deeply student-centred. I believe that each person who chooses to draw is moved by a unique intention, whether it's mastering technical skills or exploring their own world through visual storytelling. That's why I tailor every lesson to support the individual goals of each student.
For those who are more interested in improving their technical abilities, i provide structured, didactic materials. These include selected resources from established drawing manuals, as well as my own handouts and exercises focused on essential techniques such as anatomy, perspective, shading, the use of different tools and materials and much more. My aim is to make complex topics accessible and rewarding to learn.
For students who are more interested in self-expression and storytelling, we work with creative expression exercises. These activities are more emotional and intuitive, designed to help students put themselves into their art, exploring their own identity, style and imagination.
In all cases, I foster a safe and inspiring space where students can grow at their own rhytm, not following a one-size path.

About Me
I’m currently studying Illustration and 2D Animation while also working as a freelance illustrator. I live and work in Rome.
I’ve always loved telling stories through drawing, whether through illustration or comics. That’s why my lessons can also focus on visual storytelling and artistic communication, in addition to drawing techniques.
I believe, in fact, drawing is more than a technique: it's a language, a way to express things that words sometimes cannot. My favorite part of teaching is helping others find their own voice through illustration and animation, whether it's a quiet whisper or a bold shout.
Outside the classroom, you'll often find me playing my ukulele, walking through natural parks or closed up in a cinema. These passions deeply influence my creative work, shaping the narratives and the drawing I bring to life.
If you have a story to tell or you wanna learn having one, I'd love to draw that journey with you.
