Mauro Pereira Junior

Nice to meet you!
I’m Mauro Pereira Jr.

A few years ago, I moved from Brazil to Canada, and here I rediscovered my passion for art. I’ve been drawing since childhood, often filling the back pages of my school notebooks with cars, animals, and landscapes. However, it was only after moving to my new country that I started painting.

Welcome to my adventures!
Here, I capture moments from my life and transform them into paintings. Each canvas tells a story, expressing my emotions and conveying a message. Let your imagination run wild as you explore my paintings.
