About

Hi, my name is Alessia and I am an Italian illustrator. I have been working for some years as freelance illustrator with particular attitude to children's pictures books and educational illustrations. But I am more than this: I write stories for kids, I illustrate covers for books and magazines, I realize customized portraits and I have my own shop online where I sell original prints. Watch my portfolio and get in touch! Some other usefull links to know my work:
