Maria Gardner
I was born in Spain and am fluent in Spanish. I am an interior decorator and have plans to go to Italy for 2 or 3 months to study art and faux finishing. I am currently studying Italian and will be fluent in it as well. I have always wanted to write stories, short stories, movie ideas and comedic skits. I guess you could say I love art in any form. It is an expression of who I am and I feel very grateful to have discovered my passion. My children are most important in my life next to God.
