From her series titled “The Children of Collodi,” Luana Luconi Winner’s 20 x 16 pastel of 30 Pinocchios called “Hanging Around” was accepted into the Pastel Society of America annual exhibition at the National Arts Club in NYC.
180 pieces were selected from over 1,000 entries this year.
The town of Collodi, Italy is where Pinocchio was written and sits right next to the town of Lucca in Tuscany where Luana’s grandparents were born.
