 CHIARA COSTA – portrait artist            

“The mood in Costa's work clearly displays an understanding of life and passion with acute attention to the details of the human form.  Her portraits and ballet series both reflect a comprehension of the complexities of the ways in which the human experience differs in each of us.” Sylvia Vandekerkhove – Vernon Community Art Center
