RETROSPECTIVE

Françoise VALENTI was born in 1946 in the Aveyron Region of S.W. France. It seems she inherited her painting passion from her grandfather who was a skilled amateur and who was also very fond of working in the "great outdoors ". When she was 11 years of age she captured the attention of her drawing teacher. Her mother further encouraged Françoise in her development as an Artist by providing private art and modelling lessons up until the age of 18. Following that, she attended Montpellier University, studing Art History.

She spent 20 years in Paris where she further improved her skills and talent throught her collaboration with the Maig Davaud Gallery, in the Rue de Seine. In recent years she has become a regular visitor to Tuscany and the U.S.A. where she has numerous collectors of her work.
