Patricia Murolo
I AM FROM COSTA RICA AND I LIVE IN AVELLANAS BEACH, I AM A SELF TAUGHT PAINTER BUT I HAVE BEEN IN SEVERAL WORKSHOPS WITH SOME OF THE BEST ARTISTS IN MY COUNTRY. I GREW UP AROUND THEATRE ARTISTS BECAUSE MY FAMILY IS DEDICATED TO THIS BUSINESS AND THEY HAVE INSPIRED ME A LOT. I USED TO PAINT THE DISPLAYS FOR THE MOVIE THEATRES IN BIG FORMATS AND MURALS WHEN I WAS PRETTY YOUNG. I PAINT SINCE I WAS A CHILD AND THE MEANING OF MY LIFE IS ART. I AM A DREAMER , SO MY PAINTING COMES FROM MY IMAGINATION, THE PRINCIPLE MATTER OF MY PAINTINGS ARE SOULS REPRESENTED IN WOMEN, AND IMAGINARY FLOWERS. 1973-74 Drawing and pastel workshops.
