Lucy Ghelfi lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her interest in art and the creative process has been in place since childhood. After a 30-year career in education, she decided to make a change and pursue a career as a full-time visual artist. Her formal art training came from course work at a two-year community college. The studio arts training and education included but was not limited to working in various mediums such as: acrylic, oil, pencil, pastel, charcoal, ink, mixed media, ceramics, and sculpture.Her passion as a visual artist is painting on canvas using acrylic or oil, and powered pigments.
