Kristy Goggio Art Prints

Kristy Goggio admits she has had a passion for art since her days of crayons and coloring books. Eventually this interest led her to the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, where she received a Bachelor of Fine Arts. Kristy’s artistic voyage began when she opened a frame shop in Milawaukee. “This was a wonderful opportunity to learn about the art industry and keep current with trends. I was exposed to many styles, techniques and subject matter and had the opportunity to really study color.” With encouragement and support from her husband, Kristy now devotes herself to creating art full-time, fulfilling a long-time dream. “I can attribute my artistic accomplishments to him. He encouraged me to follow my true passion and become a full-time artist.” A light-filled studio was added to their home, providing her with an inspiring place to do just that. Kristy works with acrylic paints, bases and collage. “I often will incorporate hand-made and decorative papers, textiles, gold, silver or copper leaf, nail or tacks. Actually anything that is two or three dimensional is fair game!” She lives in a small village in Wisconsin with her husband E.C. and his daughters. In their free time, they enjoy traveling to places “off the beaten path” and spending time at their lake home with friends and family.
