My Story

Hello, I’m D. Tipp—a visual storyteller and dream-weaver. My journey began in Italy, where I was immersed in the rich traditions of craftsmanship and design. Watching my family restore antique furniture and create intricate woodwork ignited my passion for artistry.

Relocating to New York, I honed my skills in fine detailing and interior finishing. Merging my European heritage with contemporary aesthetics, I specialize in illustration and book cover design. Through thoughtful color, texture, and line, I transform abstract emotions into compelling visuals, blending elements of romance, futurism, and surreal beauty.

My work is more than design; it’s about capturing the soul of a story and presenting it in a way that resonates deeply with readers. Each project is a collaborative journey, aiming to encapsulate the essence of your narrative through visual artistry.
