About me
Hello, I am Chiara.
Mum of three, I have worked in Graphic design for most of my life and I am now more into illustration and surface pattern design.
I setup Art Start Academy to offer parents simple and reliable after school classes that allow their kids to follow their aspirations with friendly and knowledgeable guidance on the different materials and techniques.
