Italian Surrealist Creates Toads, Beasts And Insects In Ink With Every Line Crawling, Curling And Conspiring Against The Blank Page

Gaia Perissutti is an Italian surreal illustrator who calls herself the “Surrealist Great Archduchess of Tiny Details,” known for dense black‑and‑white ink drawings filled with eyes, tentacles, teeth, bugs and strange hybrid creatures.
Working mostly in pen and ink (often “ink only”), she creates hypnotic compositions where weird animals, toads, crustaceans and plant forms tangle together, walking the line between horror, humour and obsessive pattern. Her work appears widely in art‑sharing communities and black‑and‑white illustration feeds.
