about me
Ciao! I’m Gloria, a Sicilian illustrator born in Messina in 1992. After graduating in Performing Arts and Multimedia Production, I moved to Turin in 2019 to study illustration. In 2021, I started a master’s degree in editorial illustration, Mimaster, in Milan, where I currently live and work as an illustrator. I work and collaborate with various magazines, brands, and publishers from different parts of the world.
My stylistic research is fueled by everything around me that communicates something.
My illustrations are often populated by moons and mysterious creatures.
“I’ve always known what I wanted to be when I grew up”
is something you hear way too often, but my story is funny:
When I was three years old, I secretly drew a huge family portrait on the wall of my grandmother’s house. It wasn’t discovered until years later, only after we moved a bookcase. From that moment on, my family understood what I wanted to be when I grew up.
