Balloon Girl
May 2013
Sample of a series of comic strips inspired by stories written in social media like Twitter and Facebook and published in various digital media platforms, websites, blogs and web comics. Here I tried to tell the story without using any words. I find it fascinating illustrating other people's thoughts and ideas thus sharing with them some of their joy, emotions and excitement

Lenio
July 2012
A page from my first graphic novel which is about the saga of a group of rebels set in 18th century Greece during the rebellion. It explores the moral conflicts that arise in a group of people with a common cause but of different backgrounds and values. Here the dialogues are inspired by Plato's philosophical text "The Symposium" and specially from Socrates' mention to Diotima

Stories of the bible, Josef and Mary
December 2003
An episode of the first web comic I created after my graduation. I followed the route of Josef and Mary through the desert of Judea on their quest to give birth to Jesus Christ while I added anachronistic elements, black humour and more unsavoury and raw characters. I'm very interested in creative story writing, good solid story structure and well established characters
