Decorative Artist Jo-Anne Coletti from Massachusetts specializes in everything Roses, and has a special fondness for beautiful things that are faded, worn and well loved.   Jo-Anne brings the past into the present by transforming antiques into romantic works of art featuring her favorite flower.  Old doors, rusty pails and neglected tables are given a new, but old, look under her paintbrush. She is often inspired in her work by old paintings of roses, a favorite subject of Victorian artists. They have "a quiet gentleness about them" she explains, that are absent in paintings of other subjects.  For over a decade, Jo-Anne's passion for art has turned into a thriving business. Named after her love of roses, Vintage Rose Collection, Jo-Anne's paintings and hand painted heirlooms have graced homes  from California to Korea.

Jo-Anne's  Art work and home has been featured in National Publications including, Romantic Homes Magazine 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006,  2008, local Newspaper the Patriot Ledge, June 2005, Romantic Country Magazine 2007 & 2008  and the upcoming Dovetales Magazine June & November, 2008
