bio
| I am a full time painter,
my studio is located in Southern Oregon, USA, on a mountain with a view to
the forest, where it is quiet, the air is clean and at night the stars shine
bright. My work is done by commuting between forest, San Francisco and my native
land of Peru, where I was born and raised. In 1987 I received a BFA from Memphis
College of Art in Tennessee, and in 1990 I was awarded a MFA at the University of
Texas in San Antonio.
Some of the highlights of my career are in 1994 obtaining a commission
to paint a mural for the Capitol Building in Salem, Oregon, and in 1997,
art critic Lucy Lippard gave me second place at a national exhibition
held in New Mexico. In 2000 I received a Fellowship Grant from the Oregon
Arts and Commission and in 2002 an award of First Place at the Pacific
Northwest Exhibition in Medford, which was juried by Mr. John Olbrantz.
My paintings are being shown nationally and the San Francisco Museum of
Modern Art Artist Gallery represents my work.
