Welcome to my website!!!
Thank you for taking this moment to get to know my work as a painter.
I am an immensely happy woman for many reasons and one of them is being able to express myself through art. Art has allowed me to link myself from within to the interior of other people, and that is a Blessing that I am grateful for every day.
I was born on February 4, 1968 in Arica, Chile.
Since I can remember I was linked to the world of art through my mother, who showed me this beautiful world of colors, shapes and textures through art books, the observation of Nature and in everyday life, awakening in me a love for painting, drawing and aesthetics that remains intact to this day.
At the age of 18, I moved to Santiago to study in the Catholic University of Chile, where I obtained the title of Designer.
I practiced my profession for a few years, since I made a change in my life when my first child was born, I decided to dedicate myself to raising him and enjoying my motherhood. Then two more children came into my life. My children are the most beautiful gift I have received in life.
while they grew up I started timidly on my path in painting, which little by little became my passion until today, when I dedicate myself full time to painting and illustrating in my home workshop.
Looking for new tools, I participated in Carmen Silva's "Composition and Human Figure Workshop" and Carmen Piemonte's "Painting Workshop", great teachers.
My first individual exhibition: "Sueños de Mujer", I did it in 2002, in Las Brisas de Chicureo, Santiago, Chile. I highlight it because I consider it the starting point of my career as a painter.
After this exhibition I have had the opportunity to participate in many more, individual and collective, within Chile and abroad, of which I would like to highlight:
