Digital experiments

Al Draws Alessia Landi fashion digital illustration glasses spectacles style

Just a random post to announce to the WWW my overwhelming excitement for Santa’s gift: a graphic tablet (Wacom Intuos Art, to be precise). I have been coveting it for like 7 years (don’t ask me why I never bought one, it’s like that scanner thing, sometimes my brain goes short-circuit) but I very soon discovered it’s much less easy to use than I thought.

aldraws fashion digital illustration dior couture

Black & White: Dior Couture Fall 2017 When I opened this blog months ago, I promised myself to keep it up and running consistently: I know I need my creativity in order to feel complete and keeping a blog is the only way to manage to express my artistic self with a little bit of regularity. This is all because my brain is split exactly in two halves: the scientist, rational and methodological and the artist, chaotic and imaginative. These…
