Diana Mendoza - Peru

Art Brokerage: Diana Mendoza Peruvian Artist: Mendoza was born in Junin, Peru. Mendoza enjoyed creating art from a young age and sketched throughout school. She initially pursued studying engineering, but ended up studying fine art instead. Mendoza works primarily with spiritual and religious imagery, and is best known for her renderings of the blessed Madonna. Her style fuses European techniques with her Peruvian arts education, using skillful precision to create detailed works of art. Her meticulous work ethic loans itself to using gold and silver leafing to add yet another layer of detail, resulting in sublime and dramatic imagery. The artist begins a work of art by drawing an image, many of which are inspired by works from the Old Masters. Once she is finished, she achieves dramatic texture through the application of relief. From there, Mendoza brings the drawing to life with oil paints and the addition of gold leaf. Finally, she completes her creation with a touch of patinas. Listings wanted.
