5 Star Projects

Color Consultancy

*Featured in Architectural Digest’s Open Door

In 2023, I had the pleasure of assisting SNL’s Chloe Fineman in finding the perfect shades for her West Village apartment. Chloe had a very clear idea of what she was going for and had already picked Farrow&Ball’s Pink Ground for her sitting room, the PERFECT peach shade to play off her eclectic interiors. Her refined style and confident design choices made my job easy. For her bedroom and living space, I selected 3-5 Farrow&Ball colors to compliment the natural lighting and interiors. We viewed samples on site, where she chose her favorites within minutes!

The final result is elegant, warm and transportative. It was an honor to be a part of this project! *all photos courtesy of AD.

Visual Display

One of the coolest projects to date was creating a one of a kind holiday window display for _NIM Peru! On the ground floor of the World Trade Center Oculus, this installation entitled ‘Tierra Dulce’ was on view for 3 months during the 2022 holiday season. The characters of the Panchita Universe became life sized, wearing _NIM Peru’s sexy and playful wares and accessories.

This installation was designed, hand sculpted and painted in my Jersey City studio over the course of 3 months. It was viewed by thousands of native New Yorkers, commuters and tourists during it’s time on view. Thank you _NIM Peru for the unforgettable opportunity.

Jungle Mural

Jungle Boogie!

This mural wins as the cutest project I’ve been a part of to date! When a residential client requested a custom designed jungle scene for her Tribeca nursery, I jumped at the chance. This mural spans two walls - about 20' width in total by 13' in height. I designed the mural over the course of a week in my Jersey City studio and painted on site over the course of two 10 hour days.

This design ignites play and imagination to it’s young dwellers. The colors were custom designed to compliment the existing interiors and lighting. This jungle scene was a joy to bring to life!

Rave Reviews

We were lucky enough to collaborate with Panchita on an art show / installation in our antique store last Spring, and it was wonderful!! Panchita is focused, driven, talented, and so much fun!!

...I hired Panchita to work on a color project to select paint, coordinate delivery, and assist in the painting as well—a well-rounded creative—Panchita delivered with the perfect paint selection, delivery, and assistance I needed to complete my tight turnaround project on time. I know I can trust the energetic, collaborative, and smart-working Panchita with my design projects.

-Channin F.

Panchita is the person to go to with all things paint! Not only did they push me to go outside of my comfort zone but they also listened to what I needed/wanted. They are the dream person to work with and wish I had more rooms that needed to be painted. They made my family room and bathroom truly an oasis. Could not recommended them more! 10/10

Panchita’s Story

Panchita Maldonado a.k.a. Panchita Artista is a dynamic multimedia artist. With a 15 year career spanning across the visual and performing arts, her artistic practices are as diverse as her creative journey.

At eighteen, Panchita moved from her hometown of San Diego, CA to the bustling streets of New York City. She spent the better part of her 20s living out her vaudevillian dreams, performing professionally in traveling theater shows and Off Broadway productions. Her creative prowess reached new heights in 2017 when she created and starred in the acclaimed indie series "The Vintage Voyageur," a project that garnered her a Telly Award for Best Unscripted Series in 2019.

When the pandemic shifted the cultural landscape, Panchita’s artistic practices evolved and expanded to the visual arts. Inspired by a year long redesign of her Jersey City home with her best friend, she began painting antique furniture and pottery, which quickly led to experimentation with clay, birthing the first charaters of ‘The Panchita Universe’.

At this time, an unexpected career opportunity brought Panchita to esteemed paint brand, Farrow&Ball, where she honed her passion for paint and color, receiving extensive training in color specialty and consultancy for interiors + exteriors. Her journey grew further when she assumed the role of Project Estimator with a national painting company, contributing her expertise to over 250 painting projects in the Tri-State area from 2022-2024.

With a desire to inspire creativity and meld her unique offerings in art + design, Panchita debuts Panchita Artista LLC, her creative house offering a broad range of artistic services to residential and commercial clientele.

Panchita’s vibrant and playful sculpted works are a reflection of her theatrical and diverse background, aimed to inspire individuality and freedom of expression. Her work across art + design has been seen in NY + NJ showrooms and galleries and featured in Architectural Digest’s Open Door.

Beyond her artistic endevours, she is a dedicated student of astrology, numerology and tarot. She is a lifelong devotee of dance, and (most importantly) a proud mama to her 11-year-old tuxedo cat, Papi,
