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. Her work has been featured in 5 publications of Romantic Homes Magazine, local news paper the Patriot Ledge 2005, Romantic Country Magazine 2007 and the upcoming Dovetales Magazine July 2007.

  With roses at home, in her garden and in her work, Jo-Anne has found the perfect way to combine her love of roses into every aspect of her daily life. Jo-Anne's strong faith in God and the love and support of her family has always been her foundation for living a life of grace and beauty.
