Brittany Costanzo

Born and raised in Santa Cruz, CA, Brittany took an active interest in both drawing and nature at a young age. While obtaining an undergraduate degree in the History of Art and Visual Culture from the University of California, Santa Cruz, Brittany gained experience in Fine Arts from her local community college. Upon graduation, she took some time to travel in search of new inspiration. Brittany is currently enrolled in the Botanical Art Certificate program at the Filoli Institute. She is living in Santa Cruz with her husband and daughter, and continues to find inspiration from her garden and coastal living.

My art is a representation of my beautiful community and coastal living. I am drawn towards botanical art and wildlife portraits. My latest inspiration has come from my daughter's active imagination and interest in animals. I primarily work in watercolor, acrylic and oil. In addition to Botanical Illustrations, I am also well-versed in Pet Portraiture and Poster/Band art.
