My Story
I'm Michele di Erre, an italian illustrator, painter, and visual storyteller.
My work lives between the poetic and the surreal, mixing figurative art, symbolism and dreamlike narratives. Each piece is a hand-crafted fragment of a world just outside the ordinary where animals, people, and nature blend into one visionary tale.
My practice spans original drawings, oil paintings, acrylic, collectible fine art prints and graphic novels. Whether on canvas, wood or recycled paper, I create with traditional techniques and an eye for the unexpected, always aiming to transform images into thresholds of meaning.
Based between Italy and the UK (but often found sketching the world), I work independently, offering limited edition art prints, original surreal art for sale, custom commissions and unique visual objects for collectors and art lovers alike.
I believe in art as a poetic resistance, a way to reclaim attention, emotion and imagination.
This is not art for everyone.
But it might just be the art you’ve been looking for.

From Pure White to the Colours of Fairy Tales:
A Journey Through Light, Matter, and Imagination
"White is not an absence but a realm of infinite possibilities, where light takes shape and the invisible becomes tangible. This exhibition begins with the purity of white, exploring its nuances through drawings and paintings, revealing a suspended reality between dream and perception. Yet, white is only the beginning, a passage towards colour. Gradually, the works evolve, introducing vibrant hues and reimagining characters from classic and modern fairy tales. From monochrome urban sketches to richly coloured oil paintings on canvas and masonite, each piece is a step in the artist’s journey. This is not just an evolution of style but a discovery of storytelling through light and pigment. Every artwork is unique, signed and authenticated, inviting the viewer to step into a world where reality and wonder merge."
