Caterina Balletti

Caterina hails from Sardinia but has called Florence her home since she was an art student at the Accademia di Belle Arti, the oldest art academy in Europe. Classically trained, she now specializes in “Flash Art”, a technique which allows her to create unique works of art in just minutes. She makes it look easy, but once you try your hand at it, you’ll appreciate the years she has put in to perfecting her talent! Be sure to follow her on facebook here, and check out her website here!

Portable art? Yes please! Caterina’s wallets and purses are one-of-a-kind (and yes, the designs stay on - I’ve been using my wallet for years!).

Studio

You don’t need to have an artistic background to paint with Caterina. She is a gifted teacher and will help you create your own personal souvenir of your Italian adventures. Her studio is in the heart of Florence (Via dell’Amorino 12 rosso/red), so after our visit you’ll be just around the corner from an aperitivo or dinner at the Mercato Centrale. Of course you can visit her on your own - just be sure to tell her I sent you!
