My name is Patrizia Terranova (nee De Maria). I am an enthusiastic mother of 4 beautiful children who light up my life every day. I am a loving wife to a beautiful man. I am excited about the future and incorporating my skill as an artist into my life (once again)- turning my passion for art into something more- a way to positively influence the world and help to brighten spaces, to let the positive energy shine through. People ask- "Do you still paint?"- Its not : "Am I still an artist?" - I was born with this passion - and I will forever have it. Its not something that I do, it's something that I AM.
