Hi, I'm Lisa, illustrator and paper artisan.

Pencils and brushes have always been my most precious playmates! I lived my childhood in a small village in the Abruzzo countryside and I had to develop some creativity so as not to get bored!

Then I became older but the disposition remained: curious, reflective and fascinated by diversity and beauty, I learned to fully enjoy the world around me, to be amazed by the beauty that lurks in the smallest things, to appreciate the many shades.

I would like to call myself a traveler that, whether in the real world or just with the mind, cannot stand still! My suitcase is always there, ready under the bed, impatient to embark on the discovery of new colors, unusual shapes and unusual faces.

But how did I get here? After a degree in Architecture I finally decided to put my great passion for drawing to use. I studied illustration at the International School of Comics in Rome, followed courses and workshops to improve my technique; but drawing wasn't enough for me so I merged the love of illustration with my passion for paper, starting to create quality artisanal products. And so, back in my mountains, my little happy laboratory is born where I create, experiment, cut and bind. I illustrate books, draw stories, design my products and then carefully carry them out.

I dedicate all my time to this project: in my free moments I like to collect old objects found, I love cinema and I'm always ready to go on a trip!

Laura Cortinovis, illustrator in love with colors. In her Blu_lab in beautiful Bergamo, she creates worlds and characters with the watercolor technique that represents the easiest way for her to make dreams visible.

She attended courses organized by the International School of Illustration of Sarmede and other organizations in this sector. As a writer and illustrator, in 2013 she published the children's story “From the meadow to the sky” (Edizioni Sestante), in 2016 “There are trees, you are there” (Il Ciliegio Edizioni), and in 2018 “Viaggio nei colori. A notebook to discover and live them" (ed. Il Melograno).

She works as a freelance for Italian publishing houses and brands.

She is known on the net and on social networks thanks to her blog icoloridilaura.it, in which she proposes artistic tutorials to bring adults and children closer to the world of art and painting. Since 2016 she has been working in different Italian cities on watercolor techniques.

Roberta Ranieri, from Puglia, a lover of stationery and the world of planning. After discovering the Bullet Journal method, I rediscovered the creative me that I had buried under university books, re-evaluating the beauty of a blank sheet.

From 2016 I tell my life on the web surrounded by colors, lettering and illustrations.

Today I'm one of the Italian reference people for Bullet Journaling and the Art & Craft world.
