LUCIA ANTONELLI

As a child I spent most of my waking moments absorbed in fantasy, sitting amongst pieces of cut paper, crayons, fabric, and glue, dreaming about becoming an artist when I grew up. I have come to realize that one does not simply become an artist because one wishes to, but is one in heart as well as spirit, in all ways... For me, creativity is a boundless expression of one's inner life. I've always known that I would, one day, use my creativity and passion for beauty as a means of financially supporting myself throughout my life...
