Born in Santa Catarina, southern Brasil, I started my artistic life in Brasilia, capital of Brazil, in 1981. Inspired by a great artist and friend, well known painter, Maria da Penha do Valle Rocha, I attended to art classes at the Cultural Foundation of Brasília. Passionate, I would never stop and from those days to the present moment, I have been attending to a number of classes at art schools, especially in Curitiba, also visiting various workshops for over years. Some, as follows:
| From 1982 to 1988 | Porcelain - Painting Free Drawing, Art History, Life Drawing and Watercolours |
| From 1993 to 1999 | Ceramics, Modelling and Enamelling Acrilic and Oil Painting on Canvas |
From 1986 on, my work began to be shown on several exhibitions, public and private, individual and collective, most of them through the APAP - Professional Association for Artists of Paraná (southern State of Brazil). I also took part of Art Exhibitions of the MERCOSUL and National Art Exhibitions of Brazil, in Santa Catarina and São Paulo.
Works sold all over Brazil and in Argentina, Germany and U.S.A.
