Hello!

I’m Yuner.

My name is Enrico Bisetto, aka Yuner. I am a freelance artist and illustrator based in Italy.

I work in various fields of visual art, primarily book and album covers, poster design, cards and board games, graphic design.

Ever since I can remember, I have always drawn, inspired by the works of the greatest artists of the past that I admired from the pages of the “Museums of the World” encyclopedia that I used to spent entire afternoons with, and by the pop culture icons that dazzled me from the TV screen in those same afternoons.

After a not exactly linear academic path (Too many things to know and experience to focus on just one!) and more than fifteen years in the field of branding as graphic designer, copywriter and then creative director of my agency Sestyle (Someone said that advertising is a form of art, isn’t it?), continuing to hone my artistic skills through courses and mentorships, I came back to my first love: illustration.

All these experiences have given me a great wealth of knowledge: fine arts, pop culture, oriental influences, music, design, storytelling, typography and lettering, everything finds a place in my works. But above all I learned to understand the client’s needs, to find original solutions to express his message in an engaging and exciting way.

With a passion for fantasy illustrators of the golden age and old school movie poster artists, my style is quite related to imaginative realism. In my works I use both traditional tools (pencils and dry media, and also acrylics and gouache among my favourites) and digital ones, frequently combined, in order to keep a certain retro feeling but make the most of the potential of the latest technologies (not generative AI anyway).

Mixing this with an inclination for portrait and the love for typography it’s easy to understand why book covers, album artwork, poster design and cards and board games are my natural fields of work. But, hey, I like to experiment and any new application of my art is an exciting challenge for me, so if you have a project…

Enrico has a wide and deep knowledge of many interesting topics and these are infused within his work for those with eyes to see. His attention to details and pride in his work mean that his artwork never fails to impress. His sensitivity and understanding of the subject of tarot cards and astrology was invaluable.

Enrico’s artwork has layers of meaning that often go beyond the required assignment and is not uncommon to be moved emotionally when we see the final rendering. Even if a viewer doesn’t grasp all the finer details, they are still moved by the sheer beauty of his artwork, and if able to grasp the more esoteric elements, this just adds to the depth of enjoyment.

His work on The Hermit card is a particular favorite of mine, it retains all the meaning of the classic card, but goes beyond that and tells a story we imagined together, and he captured it perfectly!

Enrico has been a blessing to our project and the beauty of his artwork is a great contributor to our company’s success. We will continue to use Enrico for all our future projects.

My collaboration with Enrico dates back to 2015, the year in which my musical project was born. He has created the artwork for many of my releases over time.

The agreement was immediate right from the start, and Enrico has given exactly the image I wanted to my music.

I leave him ample aesthetic freedom in his work, giving only a few general indications, sure that his artistic sensibility and his inventiveness will always meet my expectations.

I’m really happy for the cover of “Altri Pianeti” designed by Enrico.

The magic of the Star, which he portrayed with rays of luminescent spell, sings songs of rebirth to the observer. It suggests the offer of a rite of knowledge, which goes beyond the mystery that binds us between earth and sky.

Many are attracted to her body, built with the meticulous will to combine the accuracy of form with the changing nature of water. The color then adds magnetism and you are absorbed in a subtle contemplation that gives joy and invites you to read.

In my opinion, drawing well is not enough to be an illustrator: you need perseverance, determination, precision, the ability to relate with collaborators/customers in a proactive way, knowing how to organize your work and meet deadlines, and certainly Enrico does not lack any of these characteristics.

As curator of the collective “La Legione degli Artisti” I had the opportunity to collaborate with him on several occasions, knowing that I had an intelligent and helpful person by my side. In every project we made together he always gave his best, in some cases even completely redesigning the illustration because it didn’t satisfy him, but always respecting deadlines.

He loves to study and improve himself and the results can be seen, just as he is open to dialogue on criticism and advice. He has an excellent taste in illustration, both in terms of composition and color and final rendering. Enrico is a sensitive, reliable, punctual and precise person, you can rely on and who puts all of himself into the projects he deals with: definitely a fantastic person to work with.
