EUROPEAN-INSPIRED ARTISTRY with Southern Charm
The Heart Behind La Costiera Galleria“Art is the soul of the home, and has the power to shape how a space feels. When created with intention, it brings a sense of calm, balance and joy, becoming not just something you see, but something you live with every day.”
— Joshua French
THE GALLERY
Joshua and Trish French founded La Costiera Galleria as an intimate and elevated alternative to the traditional gallery experience. Offering private, curated showings within the client’s home, delivered with impeccable white-glove service.
Specializing in Wellness Art, the gallery creates collections intentionally designed to influence how a space visually connects with its viewers. Through color, composition and subject matter, each masterpiece promotes a sense of harmony, calm and balance within the home.
At its core, the gallery is guided by a deeply held belief: Art becomes the soul of a home. Art thoughtfully designed to bring both peace and personality, a refined balance of wellness and elegance. Thoughtfully created to complement the space it inhabits.
La Costiera Galleria is known for capturing the light, airy palette of Florida’s Emerald Coast and 30A, inspired by its coastal landscapes, flora and wildlife. Soft tones create a calming presence, while each collection is designed as an heirloom, timeless and meant to be cherished for generations.
A LIFELONG DEVOTION to Classical Art
An artist, visionary and philanthropist, Joshua French is redefining the role of the artist in 30A through a concierge approach that honors tradition and classical artistry.
At the heart of his work is a deeply held belief: art should transform how a space feels the moment you walk in. Inspired by the serene beauty of the Emerald Coast, Joshua creates pieces that reflect its natural elegance and sense of calm.
Joshua French’s journey as a master artist began at just three years old, when his extraordinary ability for drawing became undeniable. What began as natural talent quickly evolved into disciplined mastery.
Over the past three decades, Joshua has studied the great European masters, including Monet, Michelangelo and da Vinci, immersing himself in classical techniques, composition and art history. His work reflects refined mastery of light, shadow and realism, combined with a deep understanding of anatomy, structure and proportion. The result is artwork that carries both technical precision and timeless beauty.
FROM GIFTED HANDS
to Timeless Mastery
His early development was shaped not only by artistic study, but by constant exposure to sophisticated design.
Raised by parents who owned a prestigious interior design firm, Joshua was immersed in the world of ultra-luxury homes, grand estates and high-end resorts. It was here that he developed an instinctive understanding of how color, texture and form create a cohesive visual experience. His father’s teachings in Feng Shui instilled a strong awareness of balance, flow and energy to create a specific mood within a space.
This dual foundation in classical art and interior design gave him a perspective few artists have.
THE HEART & VISION of La Costiera Galleria
While Joshua brings decades of traditional mastery and experience to the canvas, Trish French is the heart and guiding vision behind the experience of La Costiera Galleria.
The gallery is a natural extension of her lifelong calling: to uplift, inspire and create beauty that feels deeply meaningful - both in the homes it fills and within the community she loves.
Before co-founding the gallery, Trish devoted 20 years to her private therapy practice and transformational retreats, guiding individuals through defining seasons of their lives and helping them find healing, clarity and renewed purpose. Working closely with high-profile clients, she developed a deep understanding of human connection, trust and the level of care required at the highest tier of service.
At La Costiera Galleria, Trish is often the first point of contact, leading gallery management, client relations and brand vision. From the thoughtful design of each collection to the elevated level of care, her role is to ensure every detail reflects the refinement and white-glove service the gallery is known for.
Her belief, that art should always be personal, never transactional. Art creates the soul of a home, and each piece should be aligned with the natural flow of the owners, allowing a space to truly come alive.
This philosophy extends into their Private Art Concierge service, which begins on-site…
THE PRIVATE ART CONCIERGE
Joshua studies the interior style and palette of the home, how light moves throughout the space, and how each area flows, while Trish guides clients in defining how they want their environment to feel. Designing bespoke collections aligned with both the space and the people who live within it.
Rather than placing art into a home, they create art for it.
Beyond private collections, Joshua and Trish founded Mobile Monet 30A, an elevated paint party experience designed for private gatherings and coastal celebrations, bringing creativity directly into homes and private events along 30A in a meaningful and engaging way.
Leading one of the nation’s top-rated Painting with a Twist studios further shaped Joshua’s ability to connect art with people, earning over 500 five-star reviews during his leadership. Training artists and guiding thousands of guests through immersive creative experiences.
Today, they are deeply rooted in the 30A community, collaborating with local wellness professionals, realtors, developers, stagers and designers to create Wellness Art that promotes mental well-being, reduces stress and brings a sense of calm into the home. They also contribute to charitable initiatives supporting children, veterans and families in need throughout the Emerald Coast.
Through La Costiera Galleria, they continue to give back by creating meaningful experiences rooted in creativity, generosity and shared connection within the 30A community. Together, Joshua and Trish are shaping a new vision of art along the Emerald Coast. Inspired by European tradition, refined through modern design and defined by a focus on wellness, experience and intention.
