About the Artist
Jean Nestares started her artistic path as a photographer in Madrid, Spain as well as an apprentice and accomplice of her father, a professional lawyer and an accomplished artist. After leaving Spain for the United States, "Piki" studied cinematography in New York City and worked subsequently as a director and producer for a TV station in Caracas, Venezuela. At the same time as she pursued her photo and production career, she continued to work on her painting. While living in Caracas, Paris, Milan, Mexico City, New York City and Chicago, she worked on her art with local studios experimenting with different techniques.

Today she is based in Paris, France where she is totally dedicated to her painting, writing and illustration.

In the meantime she has published two children books that she wrote and illustrated: THE ART OF FALCONRY (www.theartoffalconry.com) and TAKING FLIGHT, ESCAPE FROM THE ZOO OF ST. JEAN CAP FERRAT. The latter was recognized by the Golden Scribe Award 2009.
