₊ ⊹ . ✧ . ⊹ ₊ .Hello, my name is Ilaria Fontana, mostly known as Izumi, I'm a full time italian digital artist, I'm mostly self taught but I've also studied arts for almost 10 years, from highschool in 2008 until 2020 when I've graduated with a degree in Graphic Arts from the Academy of Fine Arts (ABARC) in my city.In 2022 I've started producing and selling merch with my art in various italian comics conventions, starting from smaller ones to even bigger ones.
It makes me happy to make little trinkets that brings joy to people, it brings a 3D life to my art and makes me appreciate my hard work more and more.
My art style mostly consists in the use of bright colours, round shapes and clean lines.Since 2022 I've also started livestreaming on Twitch with a vtuber avatar, that I also use as a mascotte to promote my art, I usually do art streams in italian.My plans for the future mostly consist in producing more variety of merch from my favourite series, and making my own webcomics based on the multiple stories I've come up within these years.₊ ⊹ . ✧ . ⊹ ₊ .
