ILLUSTRATOR | DESIGNER
Hello
I'm Linda, an illustrator and graphic designer passionate about visual storytelling.
I specialise in creating whimsical, colourful illustrations for children's books, bringing characters and stories to life in a way that sparks imagination and encourages a lifelong love of reading. My greatest passion is helping young readers connect with books through engaging and meaningful artwork.
I studied Fine Arts and Design in Milan, Italy, before specialising in Early Years Education in the UK. This unique combination of creative and educational expertise allows me to create child-centred illustrations that are engaging, accessible, and easy for young children to understand, while supporting their learning and development.
Alongside illustration, I have extensive experience in graphic design and marketing. I create visual identities, promotional materials, and digital content that help brands and projects communicate their message effectively, maintain consistency across platforms, and build meaningful connections with their audience.

"Find a job you love,
and you'll never work a day in your life"
I began my career in graphic design after studying Fine Arts and Design, working for several years within a Milan-based agency where I developed strong foundations in branding, packaging, and visual communication. While building this commercial experience, I continued to nurture my passion for illustration, later specialising in children’s book illustration at the London Art College and transitioning into freelance work.
Since then, I have collaborated with publishers such as Latte Di Nanna and Babidi-bù Libros, as well as creative agencies including Central23 and iAM Learning. My work spans character development, storyboarding, and full book design, always balancing creativity with clear communication and audience engagement.
Alongside my illustration practice, my experience as an Early Years Educator has given me valuable insight into child development, enabling me to create accessible, inclusive visuals that resonate with young audiences. I am confident working within brand guidelines, adapting to different client needs, and delivering high-quality work to deadline.
