Denise Damanti
Denise was born in Empoli, a town near Florence, Italy. She skated at a competitive level until she decided to pursue visual arts: Denise graduated with a degree in Advertising and Graphic Design and later completed a course in visual design at the Nemo Academy of Visual Arts where she was introduced to the world of illustration.
Denise loves observing people and situations to gain insight into different human perspectives. She works with established global publishing clients such as RCS MediaGroup S.p.A. and their Rizzoli International Publications division, Gruppo Mondadori, Headu s.r.l., Federighi Editori, Sassi Junior and Pearson Education.
Denise also loves the rain and often uses its shades of gray as her creative inspiration. With a bag full of pencils, color palettes, and her digital tools, Denise creates fantastic worlds that are halfway between reality and fantasy. She finds that altered worlds leave ample space for the imagination to represent life at its fullest.
