About the Artist
"Art has always been more than paint on canvas. For me, art is where faith, imagination, and storytelling meet."
A graduate of Ringling College of Art & Design, I work in oil, gouache, watercolor, and ink — and split my time between the easel, the picture book, and the studio classroom. I founded Milk & Honey Studios so families, churches, authors, and collectors could commission art that means something for years.

In Their Words
"Giovanna brought our story to life with a tenderness we didn't know was possible. Every page made our daughter gasp."
"Her commission of our family is the heart of our home. People stop in front of it."
"My son's drawing leveled up after one semester in her studio. He talks about class all week."
