I had a wonderful time a the 2026 Bella Vita Festival in San Diego, bringing a little Italian charm to the pavement through my chalk art.

Inspired by the vineyards of Tuscany, my chalk square featured an Italian maiden picking grapes among the sun-drenched grapevines. I wanted to capture the timeless beauty of the Italian countryside with a little dolce vita sprinkled in.

It was such a joy to bring this scene to life and connect with fellow artists and festival visitors. Events like these remind me why I love creating: every piece tells a story, and sometimes that story takes you all the way to Tuscany!

Ciao, bella! Until the next artistic adventure!
