Italian Artist Creates Beautiful Fairy-Tale-Looking Portraits

Marzia Palomba is a very well-known name in the digital art world. The 22-year-old, self-taught Italian artist creates sparkly and moody pieces of art. She is also a mother of a little boy named Leo, and she has been suffering from a spine injury.

“Art has been an important part of my life,” the artist shared on Patreon. “Being inside most of the time because of my disability made me feel like an outsider, but I took it as an opportunity to dedicate my time to creating and learning. Being able to take a pencil and bring something to life fascinated be from the beginning. Art was, and is, my constant companion and it helped me be more confident and comfortable in my own skin.”
