My Bio

Sitting at a computer all day, more or less, that's me!
Sentimental fool, that's me again.
Daydreamer it's another way to describe me.

Hello! I'm Lucia, in art Nonnetta, from Italy. I'm a part-time illustrator, part-time language student and obsessive reader and shopper the rest of the time.
Everything here is made by me and related to my illustrated universe created almost 10 years ago.

I started drawing by chance, kept going on for fun and now it's a way to express my emotions with the help of some well-thought words.
A dream of mine is to start selling my drawings and maybe to write and illustrate a book someday.

Current Residence: Pescara
Shop: www.etsy.com/shop/Nonnetta

I'm having a sale in my Etsy Shop: Also, I want to give you a sneak preview of a new character I'm introducing soon in my illustrations. It will become one of my steady characters, I already have everything ready! Actually, I already showed this character in a drawing in my gallery (look below) and this is a detail of a couple of old illustrations, although I never posted the 2 anywhere. Can you guess of whom I'm talking about? By the way, we finally have the winner of my 1st Giveaway! ;)
