About Francesca
Francesca learned to paint with an easel next to her mother, Marchita Crawford. Having
grown up in a family atmosphere featuring creative talents, Francesca followed
in the family footsteps developing her own style and artistic sensibilities. A
long-time arts teacher and counselor at D.C.'s Banneker High School, Francesca
also dedicates her time to life-long learning to continue to grow and keep a
fresh perspective.
In order to honor and showcase some of the talent to which she was exposed at a
young age, Francesca features on this website works by her mother, Marchita.
Francesca also enjoys making jewelry. Some of her collection is featured here.
