Art has been the constant thread of my life. Private lessons as a child, a fine art degree, years as a portrait painter.
Then life called me toward something bigger. I built The Elopement Experience a destination wedding design business across Italy, France, Greece, California, and beyond.
Four books. Featured in Forbes. But a painter never stops seeing. I was painting and designing wedding concepts with linen, flowers, and light before I called it that.
Then COVID stopped everything. And I picked up a brush again.
The elements and photographs I had been collecting through years of travel suddenly had a home.
The cypress trees of Tuscany. The cupolas of Rome. The waves of California. Every place I had loved became a pattern.
Today, I run both The Elopement Experience and Dolce Vita Arte.
Two studios. One way of seeing.
Painter first. Always.
