While the painter may have left Italy some 50 years ago, the spirit of ‘la dolce vita’ remains her guiding light. Born in California, Haidee moved to Rome as a young child, where she lived until her late teens. Those years in the Eternal City would have a lasting effect on Haidee’s still lifes of everyday things, observed with a palpable sense of wonder. When we visited her home and studio, a Victorian house in Newington Green that she shares with her dog, Heidi also spoke to us about how food – whether delicious chocolate or fresh green salads – is integral to the art of living well.

    This woman’s smile and voice, her sense of self, her lovely home, and her history are all so wonderfully charming. It all warms my heart. I think I smiled the entire time watching this video.
