A course by Isabella Agosti
Isabella Agosti is an Italian illustrator and programmer who holds a degree in computer engineering; although she currently works as a software developer, her true passion is drawing. After trying different techniques, several years ago she decided to focus on digital illustration because it allowed her to incorporate one of her other major interests: technology.
By sharing her artwork on Instagram and participating in virtual challenges like Inktober and Mermay, Isabella began to make a name for herself in the online community and attracted enough attention to land her first jobs as an illustrator. Recently, she started a YouTube channel where she posts videos sharing her creative process and illustrated a book cover for a young author.
