Various hand painted signs by Francesca by DizzyDreamsDesigns in Oakland

Hi, I’m Francesca and my passion is using my creativity to create art out of the ordinary and seemingly unnecessary “trash” that others discard. Living in Oakland, CA, I used to be saddened by the incredible amounts of abandoned furniture I’d encounter walking my dog every day. I decided to take those “lost” pieces and transform them by breathing style and function back into them! That’s how I feel I can connect with my environment, community and make a positive impact. I’m an artist in every fiber of my being, and I was blessed with my father’s talent in that I am capable of a wide array of art mediums and am very able to teach myself those techniques I’ve not yet had the pleasure of encountering with relative ease. I love teaching myself new skills using the internet! All in all, I adore creating and sharing art of all kinds. I’d be honored to collaborate with you on your next art project!
