Hi everybody! I'm Jeannie LoVullo. I was born in 1980 and live in upstate NY.
I am very happily married and we have a son as well as 3 teacup chihuahuas.
I’ve always had a place in my heart for artwork. I grew up in a trailer in Ghent, NY with my parents, my younger sister and much younger brother. We loved running outside in a maze which my dad had mowed from an open, overgrown field. I used to pick tiger lillies, daisies, and morning glories by the fistfuls for my mother and grandmother. My grandmother lived next door so we would spend a lot of time together gardening, baking and painting together.
During my school years, I entered and placed in many art contests. I used many different mediums from acrylic to pastels. I also participated in an at-home art college course as well as a "beginners to advanced" art course at the nearby community college. Since I knew more than I even realized, I spent more time helping teach the class than learning anything myself. It was still lots of fun. I sold my artworks on eBay and at local art shows. Eventually I began doing custom art by repainting business signs, wall murals, airbrushing tire covers, portraits, and much more. I eventually had some paintings put in a local gallery; got a website up and going (www.jeannielovullo.com); then opened a shop here on Etsy! ;)
As time goes on, I have been diagnosed with numerous health issues..most of which are degenerative. Art became physical therapy for my mind and my body and as a useful tool for my autistic son. It taught him how to properly grip objects, stay focused, patience, to use his imagination and so much more, It also continuously keeps me focused on the worlds beauty as it is and what it can become...and not the pain I am in.
NOTHING WILL STOP ME FROM WANTING TO SHARE my love of art, fantasy, love, passion, honesty, laughter, beauty, depth and vibrance with the world!
