We are proud of our Peschiera contest winners who represented Houston well! Rita Fortunato was that contest's Facebook winner, and won automatic entry into the Berlin contest. Thanks to our event organizers, Russo Studio Di Consultenza Artistica, Rita's winning has been upgraded and she will also exhibit in Berlin along with Michelli and the Berlin contest Grand Prize winner. Congrats Rita!

In 2018, I was honored as one of 50 artists invited to exhibit at the I Segnalati Rome art event. Through my partnership with the Associazione Socio Culturale EA Arte Club of Italy, I was granted exclusive rights to reserve space in the beautiful Velli Palace Exhibition Hall in Rome, Italy, for a video presentation of my sponsored Texas artists who placed in my Houston Strong competition, which was in honor of the Houston art community affected by 2017 Hurricane Harvey.
ARTmiration LLC is a member of the International Biennial Association and the
