MEET THE ARTIST

​

Hey there!

I'm Angelis Vaca, the artist behind ArtViva Events! I was born in Long Island, New York, and started painting and drawing at a very early age. I am a certified fine artist and specialize in realistic paintings with a classical approach from live wedding paintings to portraiture depicting both people and animals.

 

I further pursued to perfect my skills more rigorously and acquired classical art education at The Florence Academy of Art under the mentorship of various prominent painters where I received my CFA. With multiple winning Fine Art pieces, I had the privilege of having one of my pieces sold to the collection of the FAA in Florence, Italy. I was accepted at The Metropolitan Art Museum's intensive Master Copyist Program in 2017. You’ll find me painting at weddings

or private events and taking on commissioned work at my studio in

New Jersey.

 

From live event paintings, portraiture, to creating my own personal

artwork, I continue to remain disciplined in my line of work and

refine my creative styles and techniques. 

​

With the most sincerest appreciation to my fellow patrons and clients, please

know that I truly cherish all your feedback and support!
