Then she studied Architecture at the Universidad de Buenos Aires, in Argentina, from which she graduated in 1982; but she always kept focusing on what she really loves, Art.
Years ago, she moved to California to start a new life.
Virginia paints on almost any surface, including wood, canvas, bark, walls. She has done many murals around Southern California, and anything else she can find, using watercolors, pastels, oils and acrylic. She loves going outside of the box. She does Sculptures in Paper Mache, Plaster, Clay, Stone and Wire. She has worked on some engraving on bronze and copper, and she enjoys doing collages.
Virginia is a very versatile artist who is always trying new things and mixing techniques and materials which give her art a Unique Style.
Virginia’s work shows many influences from Surrealism to tropical colors and cubist structure. With her vivid use of striking color arrangements and juxtapositions she has created a truly unique style that is all her own.
