About the Artist
|
Like
so many of us, Francesca Creo finds her spirit continually renewed by the
limitless inspiration of nature.
Born into a family that valued the arts, she first painted in her in her
father’s studio in Rome, Italy. That early exposure inspired a lifelong
dedication to the arts and led her to training in the expressive therapies
as well as a long and rewarding career working with young people.
|

|
In 2007, Ms. Creo rededicated herself to her painting and has
been pursuing works on paper, working primarily in watercolors and
printmaking in her studio in Fairfax, Virginia
Since that time, Ms. Creo has won numerous awards for
her watercolors and is a member of the Potomac Watercolorists, Gallery
West in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia and the Workhouse Art Center in
Lorton, Virginia.
