Martina Lucidi was born and raised in Casola Valsenio, a small village nestled among the hills and woods of the Romagna Apennines.

After graduating in illustration for publishing from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, she now lives and works here as an illustrator at the Officina Margherita studio.

Martina is the mind and hands behind the Naïve project, through which she offers artistic courses, runs workshops and, above all, draws and constructs stories. Her images inhabit the present but travel through time to embrace memories. She loves cinema, apples and, from time to time, escaping to her woods
