Daniela Massironi

Daniela Massirioni was born in 1984 in a small town near Milan, Italy. She has always loved drawing. Since she was very small, her favorite pastimes have been sketching and doodling, giving life to the fantasy stories in her head. She studied graphic design in Milan and London, where she lived for four years. There, she worked as a children's book designer at Egmont UK. This experience gave her the chance to get in touch with amazing and inspiring illustrators and to see her dream of becoming an illustrator come true. Now she is back in Italy, where she works as a freelance children's book illustrator. She loves her job so much, especially when thinking of all the children that she makes happy with her drawings! Daniela‘s favorite illustrators and greatest inspirations are Mary Blair, Marc Boutavant, and Joey Chou.
