Biography
Born and raised in Paris, France, Flo grew up with dreams of becoming an artist. Strong academically, Flo double majored in business and tax law, and graduated from two prestigious colleges: ESCP Europe and ASSAS. But a health crisis prompted her to skip a career as a tax lawyer and to enroll in art school instead. She studied painting and photography for four years at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, from 1995 to 1999.
In 2005, Flo and her family moved to the US. She continued to be a full time artist while adjusting to a new life in the US and raising her two children. Since then, Flo has made her mission to bring joy to people through her art. In the style reminiscent of French artist Henri Rousseau, she has created hundreds of uplifting paintings for public spaces and private collectors. Flo has also been a pillar of her community: between 2010 and 2020, she created more than 100 murals mostly at low-income schools in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her work has been exhibited at the de Young Museum, Los Gatos Museum and the Triton Museum.
Flo works and lives in Palo Alto, CA.
