Dawn created her first street painting back in 1988 at the I Madonnari festival in Santa Barbara, CA, and immediately fell in love with the classic art form. She has since been featured at festivals around the country, won many awards, and her chalk art has been used in commercial and promotional work. Dawn’s street art has evolved from specializing in classic reproductions, such as pieces that honor the art form’s Italian origins as well as her ancestry, to contemporary perspective pieces that utilize the 3-dimensional relationship between the viewer and the pavement. Like many of her Renaissance idols, Dawn has spent her life combining Art and Science. She completed an Art Minor while pursuing her Physics and Engineering degrees, and continued to travel to festivals while working in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering. Dawn enjoys sharing her love of the medium with other artists through chalk art workshops, and with the audience that comes to watch her pieces emerge from the pavement.
