Narciso, 2011 Simona Dolci (Italian. 1950) Simona Dolci was born in 1950 in Pesaro, Italy.  She achieved a doctorate in Architecture at Florence University in 1975, to stay on for a further five years, as an assistant Professor, teaching.  Dolci attended drawing and painting courses at Florence’s Accademia di Belle Arti, launching henceforth her career as an artist.  From 1984 to 1987 she studied with Nerina Simi at the painter’s atelier in Florence, after which she studied painting and artistic technique at Florence’s renowned Cecil Graves School of Art, where she completed her studies in 1991.  Since then, Dolci has taught drawing and painting skills to a generation of young artists, who have been attracted by Florence’s reputation as a leading centre for the study of professional art.
