Francesco Mazziotta

Born in 1995, Francesco Mazziotta is a medical doctor by training and profession, but an illustrator and comic artist by passion.
Although he began drawing comics and webcomics during high school, he officially debuted in the RPG art scene around 2020 with the webcomic I Corvi della Notte. Since then, his evolving style and visual language have led him to collaborate with names such as Tomodachi Press, Upper Deck, and Panini, on projects related to Cuphead, superheroes, and Disney.
His collaboration with Play – The Games Festival has been ongoing for several years, and at the fair he runs workshops, Actual Play sessions, and panels focused on RPG art—alongside creating illustrations inspired by his favourite mascot: the Moongha.
