artist wainao JUAN CARLOS
I was born on August 24, 1980, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
From childhood, I have always loved to draw and paint. My mother told me that since the age of 7, I always liked to draw everything I saw: the furniture of the house, the clothes, the birds in the garden, everything. My mother quickly realized that I was drawing very easily, and much better than children my age.
At that time, I watched a lot of television, cartoons in general, and with that, I always drew them in the pages of the school's notebook.
Years passed, and I began to draw my parents and brothers with school pencils ...
I started to draw vinyl album covers, but always in a playful and very basic way.
My greatest inspirations, in childhood, have always been images of the inside of my house and my family ... then the buses in the streets, stealing birds, etc.
At the age of 15, I began to take an interest in drawing people, and then I did not stop, I began to love the shapes of human beings, their faces And I did not want to stop drawing people . It was around 1998.
I bought many magazines with photographs of famous people, and I began to draw, always alone, and always by the free hand. I have always used this method since I was a Child and with this I never needed to use another method to draw.
For me, it has always been a journey that has led me to be what I am today.
Art and realistic drawing are for me, to be able to show what the world has the best, the most beautiful and the most charming, without words!
I spent 12 years in another state (Rio Grande do Norte), where my career started and I had my first art exhibition at Natal airport in 2004, and since then my success and my Progress in realistic design began today!
I have made several exhibitions, I have won several clients here in Brazil, Germany, the United States, Spain, I already have several paintings in other countries and I continue in my fight to show my work! And today, I specialize in drawing human photographs in graphite pencil on paper, My great passion!
I love colors, but for me, black and white are eternal! And there is nothing more charming than to draw with a pencil a human face and its infinite expressions with realism! I love to enchant people, families with my Art, to come to them and make them always happy and delighted to watch my drawings on their walls and that for me is priceless!
Over the years, I perfect myself, and I create my own technique, my own unique trait in drawing!
I have my way, my line and my time and that, nobody moves or changes, as the saying goes: "Do not rush on art"!
It's me, it's my trace, it's my story.
