I'm Simona, a freelance illustrator from Italy who is now based in London. I specialise in emotionally rich illustrations that do more than decorate; they make you pause, breathe, and just… feel, inviting people into the story, whether it’s a book cover, an editorial piece, a poster or an ad campaign. Every project I create adds depth, emotion, and new value to the final product. With a unique blend of hand-made textures and digital techniques, my style is modern with a nostalgic soul, evoking feelings, curiosity, and a sense of story. Clients choose me not just for the final artwork but also for the creative journey we take together. From our first call to the final illustration, I make the process easy, inspiring, and truly collaborative. I was inspired to start my own business because I wanted the freedom to create meaningful art and work on projects that align with my values. Every project I take on is an opportunity to create something timeless and impactful, and that’s what keeps me inspired every day.
