Virgilio Cianci

I am an artist with training as an architect and professional painter for 30 years. I live in Bogotá, Colombia. My passion is creating figurative and realistic oil paintings. For a long time I painted still life obsessively with draped fabrics, transparent objects and wrinkled papers, but currently I develop a theme of landscapes that focuses on gardens and forests of the Colombian jungles.
