Hello, I am Chelsea Mireille Degryse, born in Roeselare, Belgium in 1996. My mother was born in Gent and my father has roots at the nord sea. I have spent my childhood in the nord west of Flanders in a small community from 1996 till 2018, where I later studied to become a nurse. In 2018 I decided to move to Gent and study as a master in prevention.

During my Erasmus experience in Romania I met the love of my life, Diego, an Italian with southern and Sardinian roots. Our long distance relationship lasted and we decided to start living together in 2021.  First we lived in Belgium, where I worked as a nurse and Diego as a doctor. Due to the pandemic this was not an easy time and after almost two years we made the decision to move to Milano, Italy.

In Italy I decided it was time to leave the medical field for a while and go back to my other passion, art! I have been studying on my own for years, learning from the masters and making copies of original masterpieces trying to learn through experimenting. I started making original pieces and I am still growing as an artist.
