Hello, my name is Maria Luisa. I was born in Italy in 1949, in a small town called Uscio, in the province of Genova. Located at the top of the mountains that surround the Ligure.

 

From a young age I lived surrounded by art. My mother embroidered, knitted, my grandfather worked leather and wood, my father wrote poetry, sang and played harmonica, and my aunts cooked clothes ..... everyone in my house created something,

Growing up we moved to Venezuela, to Maracaibo, where I assimilated' the reflection of the sun over all the colors and reveled in the vision of those beautiful guajiras that are walking paintings, beautiful women with their batolas of a thousand nuances.

 

Venezuela I traveled it all from the Andes with its snow-capped mountains to the east with its incredible beaches and rivers and admired the craftsmanship of each part. 


Now I have more time and can dedicate myself to my Page and share my creations with those who want to appreciate them.


My flaw is that I don't like to repeat a job so the things they see are unique. So be it 20 aprons, no one will be the same as the other. My children say I'm a bad trader, which is true, if I start selling hats, people will be born headless. But every thing you see is done with true love and think that I have enjoyed doing it, I hope you enjoy and appreciate my creations. God bless you!
