Lina Ferrara
Lina Ferrara has a bachelor’s degree from PSU and has pursued post graduate study in art history and Italian at Bucknell University. During one of several visits to Florence, she studied gilding and furniture painting in the grotessca style popularized by Raphael.
Her paintings are held in private collections in the U.S., Italy, Holland and Germany, and include artworks in the White House, the Library of Congress and Woodmode Industries in Kramer, PA.
Lina is a popular workshop instructor and her weekly classes fill quickly. Lina has extensive experience as a painting teacher, having taught in such varied places as Canada, Italy, Holland, and most states in the U.S. She leads a yearly painting retreat to the Amalfi Coast, Italy.
She says this about her vocation: “My purpose is both humble and powerful: I touch people’s lives by teaching them to paint. I teach technique, which in turn gives the tools of self-expression. It is expression that helps us to connect with each other. My gift is being able to guide and direct and free my students to put on canvas what they need to show the world. I am blessed to have been able to inspire people to create and to feel that surge of joy that comes when they bring an idea to life on canvas. The act of creation restores confidence, is a healthy escape from physical pain, and makes our little corner of the world a better place to live.”
