ABOUT THE ARTIST

Story-led art, built with character

I’m Daniela Frongia, an illustrator and visual development artist creating expressive, character-driven artwork for publishers, studios and creative clients worldwide.

For 15 years, I’ve worked across publishing, narrative imagery and fine art, combining emotion, composition and visual storytelling. My practice moves naturally between playful illustrated worlds and highly detailed airbrush work.

My work has been selected by international juries and featured in specialist publications, with published projects across the USA, UK, Europe, Australia and Canada.
