Gina Wolfrum

Gina’s youthful desire to be an artist was supported by her parents who enrolled her in private art instruction at the age of 12. This was due to her lack of musical talent. After three years of attempting to master the piano, her instructor didn’t attempt to persuade her to continue when Gina announced that she was quitting piano to become an artist.
Gina continued her art instruction both during and after high school. However, Midwestern practicality dictated that a business education, a banking career, marriage and two sons, would suit Gina for a number of years. During this time she graduated Suma Cum Laude from Defiance College with a BS in Business Management and completed The Graduate School of Banking at the University of Colorado.
Always yearning for creativity, she never gave up hope to return to her love of painting. The opportunity arose in 1997 when Gina re-married and went on an indefinite banking sabbatical never to return. It was while building their new home that Gina was able to once again create with paint. Encouraged by her builder and designer, she was launched into the career she was meant to have. Realizing the need to further her education, Wolfrum continues to study under master artisans throughout the United States on an annual basis, including Master Faux Artisan, Martin Alan Hirsch of Decorative Finishes Studio's Faux Finish School and Melanie Royals of Royal Design Studio. In July 2005, Gina trained at Decorative Finishes Studio with guest artist Michael MacNeil, Freeman of the Worshipful Painters of England, an internationally celebrated master marble and wood grainer.
Gina is a member of the Decorative Painters Society and the Stencil Artisans League International.
