hello!I’m Antonia. I’m an artist with a focus on visual development, editorial illustration, and comics.
In 2024, I graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in Illustration. I’ve worked with a variety of student groups on various projects and anthologies.

I love history, horror, fantasy, and all types of weird fiction. I hope to tell a story with my art and create things you don’t expect.
