A graduate of U.C.S.B., Emiliano also draws on 12 years of artistic experience in Europe, where he studied marble sculpting with his “maestro” Francesco Grazioli in Italy and decorative arts in The Netherlands. Emiliano also plays indigenous flutes, and is devoted to bringing peace, healing, and inspiration to people through his art and music. www.emiliano-art.com
