Born in Brussels of Greek parentage, I set up base in Berlin, where I fell in love both with the city and with my one and only with whom we share Tweedlelife and love.

​

I've always drawn, as long as I can remember, and even though my love for performance, theatre and film got me studying and working as a stage and set designer for more than 12 years, my passion for illustration and comics notwithstanding put me on the path of growing as an illustrator and comic artist.

​

In the last couple years I have self-published a few comics and zines (under my own "publishing house" Tweedlecomix) and am currently working on more than a couple projects that will be published within the next months and in 2026.

​

I like to work principally in black and white, using traditional ink but also digital drawing, create high contrasts with deep blacks and a fast and very expressive line work. I usually rework my pages digitally, adding dots and/or mid-tones for shadows. For colour, I mainly do digital.

 

I particularly enjoy mixing media and playing around with the space-surface of the object [comic], letting the reader discover new narrative levels and ways of interpretation (probably my stage designer's professional distortion) and explore the possibilities the medium can offer.
