As an artist, I have always been drawn to spreading beauty and transforming spaces through art.

As a young girl, I always dreamt about seeing the world, especially Italy, given my strong Italian heritage. However, growing up, my family could not afford to travel.

Since I was confined due to our financial situation, I got creative with the spaces I did have. 🎨

At home, I would stealthily grab my mother’s lipstick from her purse and use it to create shapes, sometimes on the walls of my bedroom (much to the dismay of my mother). 😉

I also loved the outdoors; I would spend hours in my backyard noticing the intricate, subtle details that most people may overlook.

This fueled my love for nature and trickles into my work today.

Getting close, being still, and being curious is all part of being an artist; this was where it all began. 💫

The perfect recipe.

Since I did not have the ability to travel while growing up, I created this collection to nurture my inner child and easily transport the viewer to the Italian coast. 🏖️

My love for nature, especially that of the elegant Italian coast, greatly influenced this collection. 🌊

Endless Italian Summer is meant to honor my Italian heritage. 🇮🇹

I want to convey the strong nature of independent Italian women as they spend hot, long July afternoons lazily chatting over sauvignon blanc while basking in the Italian summer sun. ☀️

Through this collection, I portray raw feminine independence, carefree energy, and nostalgia.

These pieces are meant to transport you to Italy, and remind you of the whimsical nature within you. 🧘🏻‍♀️

Summer is such a happy time. One of freedom.

Peaceful, simple yet bold, fresh, and bright. ⚡️

The seasonality and fleeting nature of summer is inspiring and motivating.

The way the sun rises and falls.

The perfect combination of all of these impermanent factors create a savoring feeling….savoring summer!

These pieces are about savoring summer and making it endless. ⛱️

It is the playful, vibrant spirit within these summers that will come through this work, no matter what season it is. 🍷
