Benedetta Bellemo
Benedetta is an Italian illustrator now living in Paris who swapped nearly ten years in sustainable energy policy for a full-time passion for drawing. As a self-taught artist, she’s crafted a unique style full of warmth and wit, working worldwide on editorial projects, branding, and kids’ books. Her clients include Anorak Magazine, BPIE, and the Flying Carpet Children’s Festival. Benedetta loves vintage hand-printed vibes and simple color palettes, giving her work a bold, color-blocked look. In 2023, she won the Inkygoodness Editorial Illustration Challenge and was chosen by The New York Times for their 2025 portfolio review, standing out from 3,500 hopefuls!
