Martina Garofalo was born in Castellammare di Stabia January 21, 1994.
She Shows a natural talent in drawing and though she does not choose artistic studies, she doesn't abandon this passion.
The continuous search to improve her skills leads her to take a course about Traditional Media held by Maestro Enrico De Cenzo in Sorrento in 2009-2011.
The style has gone through different phases: first, there is a strong inspiration for the world of comics, but later it becomes evident the influence of digital art.
