South Lake Tahoe local artist Simone Sannazzaro is a painter, sculptor, illustrator and more. Practicing art from an early age, she continued to develop her skills in art classes in high school and at Lake Tahoe Community College, where she graduated in 2014 with an Associates in Arts degree. Simone currently sells jewelry on Etsy, posts art on Instagram (@simoneclectic) and DeviantArt (symmone.deviantart.com), has art for sale at Cali Burger in S.L.T. and live paints at several events around South Lake Tahoe. 

Nature, life, death, music, in addition to personal experiences influence Simone’s somewhat dark style of art. She incorporates various aspects of existence, dreams, macabre and more with deep tones contrasting bright vivid hues. Exploration within and without the self have been a recent influence for her most current pieces.
