Hi! I'm an Italian freelance illustrator, at the moment living in Mexico City. I work with magazines by mail, mostly for USA, Italia, and Mexico. I work in mixed media traditional plus digital program.

Some time ago I shared some of my works with you. Now I present the new illustrations that I made in the years after the first post.

Some were made on commission for magazines and others are personal work.

People put on a facade to mask their true feelings? Why, that has never happened before social media existed!

The title suggests that the chicken is self-absorbed and thinks he's superior, or he aspires to be an eagle, but I like to look at it like the chicken has the potential or the heart of an eagle.

Why is the zebra there still? I'd think aliens would be a lot more intelligent than people, they'd know that the most beautiful animals are in the wild, in their natural habitat.

This one represents ego better than the chicken-eagle one. Though it can be perceived as the person is showing the brilliance he sees in himself.

It's the best we've got so far. Socialism, communism, Marxism; those aren't any better.

My immediate association for this pic was something else - I felt like society has sunk low enough to the point that a person would watch with a bored face a reality TV show ( Big brother style) of prisoners suffer in jail. Even more specifically the prisoner is trying to reach for help from the "healthy" part of society but gets blocked by a transparent wall and a bored face.

"You can judge a society by how they treat their prisoners." "The least will be the most." etc.

They are both captives and isolated. One of a screen.The prisoner is desperate for contact and time to do so. The other is probably unaware of all his time passing by in isolation.

They are both prisoners and isolated of true connection with others. One is "content" with being captivated by a screen that takes all his time away. The other is desperate for time and opportunity to communicate and bond.

Desires contact with the outside "real" world? Perhaps no one ever visits him.

You are in there for a reason. If I so choose to sit and be lazy, it's my choice as I'm not a criminal in jail.

Why is it bad to support failure? To quote Yoda from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, "Failure, a great teacher is."

As a writer, writing isn’t for money, it’s a passion. That is why you shouldn’t be graded on it- it comes from the heart. My English teachers gave me bad grades because I wanted to get creative, and not do what everyone else did.

Why would Bob be ugly? Besides, in the Netherlands a BOB is a Bewust Onbeschonken Bestuurder (Consciously Sober Driver). He/She is a hero that brings everyone home safely after any party.
