Julia Massimino
About Me
My name is Julia Massimino and Im a Swiss/Italian aspiring illustrator - creating art with the aim of evoking emotion, story telling, and provoking thoughts. I am currently in my second year of studying illustration at Kingston University.
I grew up in Ghana for 18 years and it has shaped my journey as an artist. I am therefore inspired by Ghana's culture, patterns, textiles, colours, nature, and animals.
