Constance Pappalardo Bio.

 


Constance Pappalardo was born in Lima, Peru. After her father’s untimely death, the family moved to New York City. She was only 8 years old, but her mother took her to museums and galleries often. The art and culture of the city inspired her to pursue her art studies. After high school, Ms. Pappalardo studied painting at The Art Students League and at The School of Visual Arts, in Manhattan.


In 1976 the artist began a long spiritual journey that took her on a long hiatus away from painting. But a few years ago, she returned to her first love and since then has been painting prolifically and with much success.


Pappalardo now lives in Cary, North Carolina. Her contemporary abstract watercolors have been featured in numerous galleries in Cary, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, and other cities in North Carolina.


She is a member of Artspace Raleigh and of The Durham Art Guild and is represented by Art in Bloom Fine Art in Wilmington, Art Mob Gallery and Studios in Hendersonville, NC and Glenwood Fine Art in Raleigh.
 
Ms. Pappalardo is the recipient of various art awards. Her works are included in local corporate collections as well as private collections in the states as well as England, Norway, Germany, Italy, Portugal and her native Peru.
She was chosen to be the signature artist for Cary’s 2007 Spring Daze Arts and Crafts Festival.
She is one of the original founders of The Cary Art Loop, Final Friday Art Walk.
 
Ms. Pappalardo is very involved in many charity art auctions, donating art throughout the years to such charitable events as VAE’s For the Love Art auction and gala, the Works of the HeArt/ action against AIDS auction and gala, North Carolina Museum of Art's Art of the Auction, the Red Cross, the Boys and Girls Club of Wake County and Habitat for Humanity among others.
