Florence Mae Parlangeli, born and raised in New
Rochelle, NY, grew up as a dancer and a love of the arts.

  After graduating from the State University of NY with a
degree in Advertising Art & Design and training in fine
arts, she started her career as an Assistant Art Director
with New York Life Insurance Co., in Manhattan, NY.

  While raising her family and pursuing her profession in
advertising, Flo painted for pleasure, often land and
seascapes, and her work was displayed and honored at
art shows in Connecticut and Massachusetts.

  Most recently she has taken up Plein Air Painting on
the coasts of Florida, New Hampshire and Maine,
producing dramatic original oil works.

  Flo has always incorporated her artistic talents into her
life and has explored the age-old technique of Japanese,
Sumi-e art painting, along with developing a passion for
creating original jewelry. Her designs are derived from a
love of color and a keen eye for balance and proportion.

 Each item in Flo's collection is individually designed,
and her pieces range in theme from fun and spunky to
sophisticated and spirited.

  Flo said, "Painting is like music to the dancer...you have
to feel what you paint."
