Alessandra Pisano is rapidly becoming a big name in the world of fantasy illustration. The winner of the Spectrum Rising Star award in 2016, Pisano often paints images containing elements of mythology and magic. Her oil paintings provide a glimpse into a world where solitary women live and hunt in the wilderness alongside animal companions. With a style distinctly her own, Pisano’s work has appeared in the last four volumes of the annual Spectrum fantasy art awards. In addition, she has created artwork for Sideshow Collectibles, Fantasy Flight Games, Upper Deck, and most recently, Magic: The Gathering.
