ings of landscapes, beaches, country retreats, and gardens take the person looking at the painting into her world, giving them a taste of a treasured world that has been hidden from the naked eyes.

As was mentioned before, most of Diane Romanello prints have a touch of realism in them and this statement is proven in her painting “Windsong” that was inspired by a picture she took of a friend’s driveway. Diane Romanello prints shows that anything can become an inspiration and that everything in nature is truly beautiful, we just need to take the time to notice them.

Along with her beautiful artworks, Romanello is an active charity supporter and she uses her art, not only for self gain but for the gain of others. Romanello has been known to donate original pieces to her favorite charities. She has donated pieces to charities such as the United Way of Long Island, where her piece was used to make money through a fundraiser and The McGaw Foundation received the “Idle Hour” print. The McGaw Foundation is a non-profit organization that aids in the prevention, care, and hopefully cure of AIDS. The sales that were made from the “Idle Hour” piece were used to benefit charities that are there for supporting people who are living with AIDS.

Diane Romanello prints are also available in giclee prints and she not only paints to entertain her viewers, she paints in an attempt to transport viewers from the bland, dull world that we live in and take us to our inner sanctuary, where we will find peace and fulfilment.
