Autorenporträt

Bella Meyer was born in Paris and grew up immersed in art and painting. After attaining a Ph.D. in Medieval art history in Paris, she moved to New York where she focused on puppetry as well as creating theater costumes, props, and masks. Over the years, Meyer incorporated flowers into her work, and in 2005 her studio was born. Flowers have always been close to Meyer¿s heart. Their unique ability to inspire people to smile, or to bring a moment¿s peace, is important to her. Meyer creates arrangements much in the way an artist paints, just as she had watched her grandfather, Marc Chagall, paint bouquets that brought joy to the world.
