I create detailed ink illustrations where I draw people’s life and story. If you are looking for a meaningful present to celebrate an important milestone, from a wedding to a new home, here you can commission an original Biograffiti drawing and give someone the most special gift: their story.
My wife and I just spent one hour going through the drawing. I am super happy, I love it, you put so many things inside it, it’s a constant discovery. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Roberto, 50th wedding anniversary
Preparing the Biograffiti brief was amazing, it gave me the chance to stop and reflect, it was super romantic. I have just realised that now you know more about our life than many of the people around us! Wow!
Manuela, 50th birthday
Thank you for the amazing Biograffiti! It’s incredible to see all the best and most important moments of my life condensed in such a small space.
Matteo, 40th birthday
What can I say… it’s amazing… there are no words to describe how magic your work is… You took my words and translated them in splendid images. Thank you for telling our story with me!
Francesca, wedding gift
It’s MARVELLOUS! It’s one of the most beautiful things I ever bought, I swear.
Valentina, 10th wedding anniversary
Vittoria tells me a different story from the drawing every time I go see her (I am a physiotherapist), with your art you made a nice person happy, this is what really caught me of your work, on top of the actual drawing which is very beautiful.
Roberto
It’s a drawing that takes your breath away. I can’t wait to see it in real life, but even digitally it’s as oneiric as I imagined. Fantastic! Fantastic the idea in general and fantastic your ability to crystallise people with your drawing.
Adele, 40th birthday
Thank you, you created a work of art, you moved us and marvelled us, the present was much loved. I am not exaggerating when I say that you gifted us with something special.
Valeria, wedding
The card has arrived. How marvellous! I showed it to the kids and they were enthusiastic. I… my eyes were wet with tears. You summarized a life with images, you are an incredible narrator. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Laura, birthday
Are you a business owner?
When there is a story to tell, think about a Biograffiti. An original way to share your business values, history and beauty.
I can help you draw leaflets, logos, web images and more for your business. I work digitally with Procreate and can offer a full digital service and also help with the printing of your digital material afterwards. I charge £100 per day, pro rata: if your work requires less than one day, you’ll be charged accordingly. We can plan a budget before starting the project and we can have a free initial consultation.
Biograffiti are bespoke illustrations drawn directly in ink, each containing a celebration of life curated by you. From the extraordinary to the everyday elements that make up each story, each Biograffiti creates apoetic and surrealworld shaped around you.
After studying literature at Uni in Turin and spending a few years working in sales in the IT sector in Glasgow, at the end of 2019, favoured by the events, I decided to become a full time illustrator and focus on an artistic project which had been in my mind for some time, looking for its final shape. Biograffiti, biographical drawings: a series of bespoke drawings based on someone’s life, completely personal and at the same time linked to all the other artworks by a few recurring elements.
Each Biograffiti requires lots of hours of work. When I receive your list, I start thinking how I can represent each element, choosing between the endless possibilities which every concept carries within; I research books and websites to learn how to draw things I never drew before - the Waldorf Astoria in New York, Live Aid, the Orient Express and so on.
