Hey there! I'm Giovanna, a designer turned artist and entrepreneur based on the North Shore of Boston. I believe art has the magical power to create joy and bring people together in the most unexpected ways. My creative journey began with Saturday morning Bob Ross sessions in the '80s, evolved through a corporate design career, then came full circle during Covid when my daughter inspired me to rediscover watercolor painting after a 20-year hiatus.

As a perpetual learner, I'm constantly exploring how art impacts our lives- studying how creativity heals, helps people unlock their potential, and transforms mindsets, plus diving deep into the fascinating science of how our brains respond to beauty and artistic experiences. Through Art Experienced, I get to live this passion by creating transformative experiences through corporate events, private commissions, and keynote speaking opportunities that celebrate the beautiful intersection of art, joy, and meaningful human connection."
