Today we’d like to introduce you to Marcella Colavecchio.
Hi Marcella, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
My name is Marcella Colavecchio. I’m a contemporary figurative artist working out of Austin, TX. I realized I was an artist at a very young age. As an only child, my parents always encouraged me to keep busy by doing something creative. My father is an abstract painter and master metal craftsman. He always pushed me to be the best at anything I put my mind to. I remember being in middle school when I made my first animation cell based on a short documentary I watched on Walt Disney Animation Studios and by then, I realized that the word “artist” would define me for the rest of my life.
