Biography

Hi, my name is Krys, I'm an italian illustrator and a visual development artist. I come from a traditional painting background, in fact I got my three years degree in painting at the Academy of Fine Arts of Foggia, in the south of my country. Afterwards I studied for three years at IDEA Academy, an International Academy based in Rome, which formed me in Visual development art. I've worked as a freelancer illustrator, and I'm currently interested in getting a job in the animation industry or the videogame one. I enjoy drawing characters, props, environments and storyboards, preferably with my cats Rohan and Luna purring on my legs. When I'm not drawing I love to take long walks on the seaside, hiking, playing roleplay games, reading books or comics, writing and watching good movies while (obviously) eating icecream or pizza.
