TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF
Hello, I'm Maria, a multi-passionate creative. My art journey began with photography and eventually led to a love for painting in watercolors, gouache, acrylic, and oil. I refined my painting skills through the Milan Art Institute's Mastery Program. There, I learned to find my voice, and wow, painting has changed my life! I love creating and sharing my lush, vibrant art with others! When I am not painting, I love working on my Find Your Magic Newsletter and connecting with my collectors and fellow artists!
TELL US ABOUT YOUR business
My art business offers: A step into my magical world with Original Paintings made with any medium that has inspired that work (watercolors, gouache, acrylic, or oil), Fine Art Prints- printed in my studio, and a Greeting Card Club, a curated monthly membership featuring a surprise greeting card! As well as my first book, The Magic of Flowers, which will be released in August 2026.
hobbies/favorite pastime
My hobbies include reading magical realism books, suspenseful mysteries, and mindfulness books like Ikigai. Being outside, experiencing the beauty and magic of nature-like gardening, walking the pups, and hanging out with/watching the beautiful wildlife and my chickens!
fun fact/useless talent/party trick
I have befriended crows in my backyard (daily peanuts provided), and I found 50+ four-leaf clovers this year!
