Linda is one of the new trustees at LSA. She comes from a corporate background rather than an artistic one, however brings useful leadership skills and experiences to LSA to help us go forward.
Her corporate experience was very people focussed and whilst she still keeps her hand in in that world, she has retrained and qualified as a celebrant for weddings, baby namings and funerals, specialising in creating and delivering bespoke and deeply personal ceremonies in Warwickshire and the Cotswolds.

Treasurer

Maristella lives in Coventry and studies Business Management (BA) at Coventry University. She is Italian, from Sicily, and she has a passion for foreign languages and cultures.
She is President of the Coventry University Art Society and an emerging artist, exploring the immensity of techniques and experiences Arts can offer. She used to draw, craft, and paint since she was a child but took a different direction with her studies finding less time for artistic hobbies.
She began painting again and crafting about 2 years ago, utilising mixed media, upcycled, and recycled materials and tools. She is driven by passion and tries to let her feelings, emotions, and human condition guide her to ensure expressive authenticity. As an active member and volunteer, she got inspired by the Leamington Studio Artists (LSA) community and initiatives and has now joined the LSA Board of Trustees.
