Gina Martinelli is the consummate artist.  On one hand she's a performer: Mama Gina, as Martinelli is fondly known to many, is available for piano performances for both public and private parties.  “I love to play beautiful piano music,” says Martinelli.  “Smiles from the audience thrill me!”
On the other hand she's a teacher: “I offer private instruction for piano, guitar, voice, clay sculpture, pottery, drawing and painting.  Teaching keeps me grounded.”
With degrees in music and sculpture, and a teacher's certificate for art and music K‑12, Martinelli works closely with home school families, and she's currently accepting new students.  “Some of my best students are adults, however, and I welcome students of any age.  We are all artists and need to express that side of us.”
