About me!

Ciao,

my name is Manuela, I’m an Italian artist currently living in San Mateo, California.

I have been surrounded by art all my life. I’m in fact, the daughter of a very famous Italian sculptor and since I was very young, he taught me how to use colors to express my emotions.

I moved to the US from Italy a few years ago. Even though  I studied Political Science and communications, I never abandoned my first love, and biggest passion, the visual arts, designing jewelry, clothes, painting, and creating functional art objects with epoxy resin.

The 2020 pandemic gave me the courage and the time to go public with my project, so that I would create the Manuela F creations brand. 

My art is a combination of different techniques and mixed media all in one piece. I   work with acrylic paint, alcohol ink and epoxy resin.

Each single piece is absolutely one of a kind and tells its unique story.

My biggest source of inspiration is definitely Mother Nature,  I love to mimic the real stone patterns in my geodes, to reproduce the absolute beauty of the flowers in my paintings, the natural color shift of the ocean in my areal vision of the sea.

Art is my therapy, my joy, my cure, it has always been this way all my life.

My ultimate goal is to spread happiness one artwork at a time .
