Book Projects
A selection of unpublished picture book projects (full storyboard and sample final illustrations available for development with publishers and editorial partners).
The gift of the rain
unpublished - illustrator and author
On a rainy day in an empty park, a child meets Flipper, a tiny mysterious creature who seems to have arrived with the rain. Through Flipper’s dreams, puddles become seas, bushes become forests and playground slides become mountains to climb, turning small fears into shared adventures. A story about imagination, courage, friendship and the quiet magic that helps children reach out to others.
Forever
unpublished - illustrator (story by Sergio Marco Erculiani)
At the birth of the universe, a lone spark appears and gradually takes shape. It becomes a flower, a gift, a memory, a dream. Passing gently from hand to hand, it moves through different eras and lives, accompanying moments of joy, loss, and rebirth. Along its path, it transforms, changes form, and carries with it the invisible thread that connects one life to another, until it finally returns to the sky where it first appeared.
Threshold
unpublished - illustrator and author
A silent book inspired by that unique moment when a cat enters a person's life. It is a poetic journey through the flow of emotions and dreams awakened by the delicate process of building trust and affection between two beings.
The artwork is inspired by the expressive qualities of linocut, a technique I have recently been exploring. Hand-drawn illustrations and handmade textures were combined and refined digitally, resulting in artwork created entirely as digital files while preserving the tactile character of traditional printmaking.
