Francesca started to develop her artist techniques during high school, with painting on ceramics and glass. She also pursued photography studies at this time.
In 2004 under tutelage of sculptor Vito Pancella she began her artistic career creating the bronze sculpture Partagé. Francesca decided however, that painting was the area where she wanted to concentrate most of her artist endeavors. While studying art in Rome and Paris she developed her own painting technique.
She had exhibitions throughout the world prior to finishing her degree.
Her interest in black and white photography continued as a secondary artistic enterprise with her “Parisian Feet” collection receiving acclaim. Since completing her studies, Francesca has continued to paint, with her own style evolving. She has also increased her knowledge of art through her work in Paris at the Picasso Atelier.
