Painting Happy by Pivot-Iafrate Anne | Painting Figurative Urban Pop icons Life style

Anne grew up in a family home where she developed a taste for antiques. As a child she loved to paint and frame works of art. She studied communications and moved into media relations, but after ten years in her career she once again heard the call of art. She trained as a decorative painter and learned a variety of techniques (patina, trompe l'oeil ...). Anne became a self-employed craftsman and expressed her art on large scale projects (apartments, houses ...) When she decided to close her business in order to raise her children, Anne began to express her expertise on canvas. It was a revelation for her. She started teaching painting to children and adults in her own studio, taught in a fine arts school, and in 2005 she began exhibiting her work.
