Shanna Bruschi is a Bay Area artist, known for her colorful and expressive abstract oil paintings as well as her abstracted figures. She has exhibited nationally as well as won awards for her work. She has recently cultivated a passion for photography, in addition to painting. She lived in Italy for many years, studying art in Rome, and then in Siena, where despite working as a translator, spent her free time tooling around the countryside in a rusty hot-pink bike and painting as much as possible back at the vineyard where she lived. Shanna is also a marathon-runner, and can often be found on Mount Tam's trails, where she derives so much of her daily inspiration.......
