ELENA ALBANESE BIO
I'm an Italian illustrator. After 8 years working in the fashion industry as a designer I decided to dedicate myself entirely to illustration, trying to grow up as an artist.
My personal works usually refer to fantasy realms and celtic/northern spirituality and mithology.
Moreover I work for some commission projects in the field like games and publishing.
Last year I published my first book "Awakenings & Revelations".
I have been featured in some expositions in Italy and later my works have been featured also in the UK.
This is the beginning of my journey and I hope to grow more.One thing you need to know about me: I approach everything with humility.
My key is "Wonder"
