Dots x Circles Illustration Magazine Issue 01 – April 2025

Celebrating the Power of Illustration

Step into the imaginative and emotionally rich world of contemporary illustration with the latest issue of Dots x Circles Illustration Magazine. This debut edition proudly features Nicoletta Ceccoli as our Illustrator in Focus. Known for her dreamlike and emotionally evocative imagery, we feature Nicoletta’s artwork, Through the Looking Glass, as our cover as it perfectly captures what this magazine stands for: illustrations do more than visually represent a subject; they reflect an illustrator’s inner world,

philosophy, and artistic vision. We invite you to pause, reflect, and step into a realm where visual storytelling meets the soul.

We are also honored to spotlight five exceptional artists from around the globe, Carmen García Huerta, Alfonso Cirillo (Fonzy Nils), Ella Kasperowicz, Marie Boiseau, and Tiffany Chin, each of whom brings a distinctive artistic voice and visual style that inspires, provokes, and delights.

Our Featured Artist section features Daria Lada, whose emotionally resonant and delicately powerful work continues to captivate art lovers and professionals alike.

For creatives eager to grow their careers, don’t miss our Mini Masterclass with Krissy Mastoras, a former art director turned art licensing powerhouse. In this in-depth feature, she shares the secrets behind building a million-dollar creative business and offers valuable insights into the world of art licensing, an often-overlooked yet essential part of the illustration industry.

Whether you're an illustrator, designer, creative professional, or simply someone who appreciates visual storytelling, Dots x Circles Illustration Magazine – April 2025, Issue 01 offers a rich, inspiring experience filled with talent, insight, and artistic discovery.

Dots x Circles Illustration Magazine is published bimonthly, bringing fresh inspiration and valuable industry knowledge in every issue. We’re thrilled to have you with us at the beginning of this journey, and we can’t wait to show you what’s coming next.
