AGNES MANGANELLI

Acquiring a BFA from Temple University and studying fine art abroad in Rome, her talents capture the personality and likeness of each individual. Through lighting, color usage, and energy of the stroke, her subjects emit their true personality.

For over 15 years, Agnes worked in the New York City area as an art director in advertising. From this experience she has won numerous design/art awards within the advertising industry.

Currently residing in Indian River County, Florida with her family, Agnes devotes her time to express her true calling of drawing the human spirit. Her talents are also used within the community through the various cultural committees to which she belongs.

Creating portraits for clients throughout the US and abroad, she works from photographs and a brief consultation with you to include any environment or color scheme which results in your portrait made personal. One client wrote, "You have created such a warm and loving momento that it has become an instant heirloom. No photograph we own so captures Savannah's personality"
