As another breathtaking season in Palm Beach comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the sheer beauty, refinement, and privilege of experiencing this world of luxury, culture, and connection. But beyond the shimmering galas and exquisite dining, what resonates most is the gratitude—for the journey, the hard work that made it possible, and the people who share in these moments.

The season was a tapestry of elegance, from intimate private dinners with close friends to grand galas hosted by the Chamber Music Society, the Norton Museum, and the Palm Beach Opera to name a few — each event was a reminder of the arts’ power to inspire and to connect those of us who revere the power of the creative spirit. Performances and exhibits offered unforgettable experiences, where music and culture came alive in the most spectacular fashion.

Of course, Palm Beach is as much about its culinary artistry as its social scene. Some of my finest evenings were spent savoring unforgettable meals from classic Italian and French cuisine to innovative American and Greek – – each offering a perfect blend of refinement and a seat at the table which has the potential to unify all. Diving into this oasis of exquisite foods and wines, and authentic hospitality, was a reminder that luxury is about experience, not excess, as this was by far the most inspiring and centering of all. The experience validated my reason for being in Palm Beach and my love of the finer things in life. Ahhhhh a toast to the relishes and the beautiful art we made!!!!

As an artist, it is my duty to remain an open vessel – – one that inspires, uplifts and at all cost maintain my authenticity and reverence for my gift. That reverence also extends to all artists who give of themselves in the true celebration of being an artist without compromise.

Now, as I prepare to transition from Palm Beach’s vibrant season to the next adventure, I do so with deep appreciation. Luxury, after all, is not just about access—it’s about how we choose to live, the experiences we cultivate, and the gratitude we hold for every step of the journey. And for that, I am endlessly thankful.

While we await next season, I shall venture off to cultivate more memorable experiences centered around life’s indulgent relishes!!!! Back to Europe now!!!!

See you there – -CIAO!!!!
