Gina Matarazzo is a designer of books and paintings. She occasionally hides little acorns like a squirrel that are hidden within designs. These little acorns are hidden objects or details within the design for the viewer to find and enjoy. She loves the details, secrets, and stories about the creative process.
There are hidden wonders and joys of the world right under our noses every day. Gina enjoys creating art that celebrates the things that are often overlooked and taken for granted. When is the last time you really looked at the sky or the sprightly little rabbit in your yard? What does that dog of yours dream about? She believes everyone needs to slow down and pay more attention to what's going on around them. With a little creative license, she aims to show you a magical way of looking at ordinary things.
Gina lives with her illustrator husband and cats Gwendolyn, Cecily, and Georgie in southern New Jersey where at certain spots between trees, you can catch a glimpse of the beautiful Philadelphia skyline in the distance.
