Can you introduce yourself?
I’m Silvia, an artist & illustrator based in Milan. I’m an adventurous and passionate person; I enjoy changing perspectives, listening to stories, and letting myself be surprised by the unexpected. Drawing comes naturally to me, it’s how I express myself and capture emotions and memories.
How would you define your creative universe?
I would say it’s a relaxing universe, with, sometimes, a touch of sensuality. I love drawing bodies as I perceive them—free from traditional standards, rules, or perspectives. I enjoy experimenting across mediums, from paper to digital, always driven by my passion for details and color research.
Where do you find your inspiration?
From many places, often the most unexpected ones. The secret, as my grandmother used to say, is to “make your eyes dance.” It’s about being receptive, observing closely, and recognizing what holds potential or catches your attention. My biggest source of inspiration comes from my travels, they recharges my vital energy.
Any creative recommendations?
Try doing something different, something for the first time—let yourself be amazed!
Also, keep a journal where you jot down thoughts (whether written or just sketched) key words, moodboards, love letters.
A place where you feel good?
I need both wild nature and the energy of the city, which is why I love alternating between places where I can truly immerse myself.
What visions do you have of Tiptoe?
I see Tiptoe as a smart brand that values both design and functionality. I admire its focus on sustainability and the willingness to collaborate with artists, creating meaningful synergies. It’s a brand that feels modern yet thoughtful, with values that resonate with me.
