Hello! My name is Francesco

Italian Illustrator, Designer and Artist based in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

BIO

I started working freelance in 2007 as graphic designer with small associations and clients in Milan, during university at Politecnico di Milano. I graduated in 2008 with a BSc. degree in Industrial Design and later in 2012 with a MSc. degree in Communication Design, officially starting my illustrator career. After many years spent in Milan, in 2016 I moved to Gran Canaria to start up my design studio, keep working worldwide as freelance designer and illustrator.

STYLE

My art is digital. My style is mainly geometric and abstract. I try to give a charming three-dimensional touch to all my works, using only vectors, color gradients and a clear and simple composition, highlighting subjects with ethereal lights and shadows, giving value to geometry as foundation of the reality. I don’t use mouse or any raster effects. It’s just me, my fingers, a keyboard and a trackpad.

MONIKERS

I’ve used many other nicknames and monikers for my creative projects. I’m Red, Sūn Wùkōng, Shō, Red Sūn Shō, Zero C, Acreativeplace, FFvectorartist.
