Hello everyone!
I am Carolina Russo the Artist behind "Carolina Russo Art" I am located in Southern California and I am very excited and happy to welcome you to my world and let you discover my Art.
I was born and raised in Italy, the beautiful country where I have been surrounded by Italian art, creativity, history, Mediterranean traditions and European influences. My father is an artist and I grew up observing and being amazed by his oil paintings. I knew since I was a child that I wanted to be an artist. I enjoyed drawing, coloring and creating things since a very early age.
In Italy, I studied Art & Design and Jewelry. I am passionate for watercolor, illustration, digital art, photography, fashion and jewelry design. I write Poems , when they come to me like whispers in my mind. I have been following my heart and path, believing that anything is possible if you truly believe in it and in yourself.
During the past 20 years, I evolved in my passions, experiencing my artistic visions and taught myself other skills and art forms such as Digital Art and Photography. Watercolor painting came to me naturally into my life. I never took a watercolor class. I also enjoy acrylics, inks and mixed media, but my favorite medium when I paint is watercolors. I love the fluidity, transparency and elegance of this beautiful medium. Experimentation with different media and exploring new techniques is something that I always loved to do. I like to explore the horizons of my creativity.
My passion for sketching using watercolors and ink comes with the love for fashion, jewelry design and illustration. You will see a variety of mediums in my Shop!
“What makes me happy is to give happiness and inspire people through my Art give feelings to the heart and deep to the soul!”
I hope that you love my creations and that you will enjoy experience my Art now and for time to come. I thrive on all things hand-made and creative. I love the interaction with inspired and inspiring people.
Each item I design is special and unique and has a piece of my own story and background. There is my soul and heart in every painting or creation I made.
I love to personally print and prepare all the limited edition art prints of my watercolor paintings and illustrations, they looks beautiful. Prints are hand signed and numbered by me.
I also enjoy to hand embellish some of my prints and add an extra touch that turn a limited edition print in one of a kind.

As an Independent Artist, when you make a purchase here on my shop you have the direct connection with me and you support my Art to evolve.
