Overview
About Me
Hello there.
I am a professional artist from London (born and raised). I paint abstract, high energy colourful paintings. I have a dry sense of humour, I love cats, I like the finer things in life like Champagne and bubble baths but really I am a down to earth girl with a little hippy/Bohemian streak. I meditate as much as I can, I practice yoga, as much as I can, I cycle as much..... you get the idea. I love books, writing journals, walking and sitting on the beach, visiting museums, galleries, meeting new people, I am not bothered about grammar as I am a dyslexic. I am intelligent, cultured, assertive and kind. I am a very sociable person but I also love having my own space and respect other peoples space too. Balance is key. I speak Italian and Spanish owed by my South American/Italian parents and I speak conversational French.
I have exhibited worldwide and now I live in Los Angeles.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Always up for the next adventure that inspires me and my art.
Interests
As above. I love art-It is my life. I read, think, dream, make, am art. I love cycling, books, films, particularly art house films (obviously) I am not a fan of text abbreviations like: LOL partly because I never know what they stand for..
I read, love coffee again due to having an Italian papa and Colombian father it's kind of a prerequisite as is wine.
I love walking around. I'm from London so I am used to this as a form of transport as well as cycling and catching an Uber around town. I network most evenings or go out with my friends as well as watching a cool drama/shark/tiger documentary/Pixar/Superhero (preferably Batman) film....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Got my work in three museums by the age of 32. Not bad! Very proud of myself. They include Shanghai, China and St Louis, USA. not to mention my first proper headstand from yoga practice! Again, another great accolade accomplished last year!
