ALESSANDROARTEGT

Self  Taught  Artist

Born in Guatemala in 1976 from Italian parents. Alessandro came from a long lineage of talented painters and artists, his dad being a renowned Architect with an incredible sense of esthetic and space, from his amazing sketching and vision to his designs and revolutionary use of light and simplicity he became one of the best architects of his generation. Alessandro first came in touch with painting when his mother took him to Pastel Painting classes and Sculpture creation workshops when he was 7 years old. Along the way he won various art recognition contests, when he was 14 years old he then steered away from painting and found other interests like music and writing. Years later he began painting again, with the help of people dear to him he began to work with watercolor and color pencils, also using and diversifying colors and techniques. Alessandro can work with various mixed arts like watercolor, ink, graphite, color pencils, pastel colors and mixed compositions. The idea behind alessandroartegt is to be able to recreate or create new memories and experiences like the feeling when you gaze upon a beautiful place when you travel, or when you see an old photography that takes you back to a place you love. You can be in touch with those places again through art and gaze upon them and rejoice.
