How did you find Cricut, and why did you decide to join the Contributing Artist Program?

I discovered CAP on Cricut Italia’s blog and immediately thought it was a great idea to share my creativity!

Where did your artistic journey begin?

I have always loved drawing and DIY and have studied art and graphics. I like experimenting with any technique.

What does creativity mean to you?

Creativity means expressing one’s ideas through any art form, with Cricut it is through images, colours and crafts.

Who or what inspires you to create, and why?

I take inspiration from my surroundings, nature, old vintage books, art and festivities.

What is your favorite type of craft?

I like many different techniques and love to mix manual skills with digital elements. Cricut allows you to create this perfect mix! One of my favourite projects is a led lamp made of basla wood with a monstera leaf shaped with my Maker 3.

What word would you use to describe your design style?

My style is minimal, I love the search for simple and clean forms. I develop basic icons but also more complex elements.

How would your friends describe you?

My friends say I am a patient and always smiling person, I like to network with other crafters and share creativity.

If you had to choose a color to describe yourself, what would it be?

If I had to choose a colour it might take a long time because I love them all! Contrasting colours are my favourite.

What is your favorite Cricut product, and why?

My favourite machine is the Cricut Maker 3 because it allows me to make any of my ideas come true!
