Valentina Giannangeli

I studied Visual Art at the European Institute of Milan.

I'm a knowledgeable Visual artist with solid foundation in creating digital artwork that captivates and engages audiences. Adept at translating complex concepts into visually appealing designs, having contributed to several successful projects. Demonstrated proficiency in graphic design software and strong eye for detail and color, animation and video editing for advertising.

I have also teaching experience as I worked after the bachelor, at IED as a teacher of illustration for children books and theory of color.

I started my career as graphic designer and illustrator for magazines at Hearst Media Group in Milan. I worked in the editorial field as free-lance for many years.

I've expanded my interests to the packaging design and developed products such as suitcases for Bric's , labels, banners for the promotion of industrial products and worked for textile brands. The passion for art was soon accompanied by the desire to be more involved in social and humanitarian activities, cultivating the idea that I could make a contribution through art.

I studied Art Therapy and I became an art therapist certified, working with kids and adults with mental development and illness.

I've moved and worked in many countries, Brasil, Russia and Vietnam, in Vietnam I was volunteering for an association that deals with street children.

I'm currently working here in Canada as a free-lance illustrator for WATERSHED magazine and I got involved in a project of a book for children to support Primrose Donkey sanctuary in Roseneath.
