Elisa βPocciβ Pocetta was born in Avezzano, in the province of L'Aquila, in 1990. She has been drawing comics for as long as she can remember, reproducing her favorite cartoons in rambling and asymmetrical vignettes before creating her own stories. After graduating from high school, she attended and graduated from the International School of Comics, and a year later, she decided to begin a webcomic entitled 'Hi/Lo'. In 2014, she drew and colored a small extra episode based on a script by Salvatore Callerami for the first volume of his beautiful 'Dandelion', and she is part of the collective 'Niriides', participating in the group's first self-produced calendar with an illustration. She loves drawing dreamy children, beautiful girls, and coloring starry and mysterious skies.
Brought up on the wrong side of the tracks in a bustling metropolis in Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada - Charles is really terrible at writing biographies of his life and trimes. Someday he will retire, think about writing his memoir and then put it off until it's too late. He currently lives in Canada's smallest - and best - province, where he is outnumbered by powerful women in his own home.
