About The Artist

Oil on Canvas Paintings, Portraits, Landscapes, Oil Painting Reproductions, Restoration - Las Vegas, NV

During her first art exhibit in Brazil in 1990, Julinya’s talent was recognized by Luis Serafico de Assis, President of MAM (Museu de Arte Moderna de Sao Paulo) where the Biennale of Sao Paulo, South America’s most important art event, happens every two years.

When Julinya was twelve years old, she took drawing lessons from FAS (now one of the best art schools in NYC) where Norman Rockwell was one of the main teachers. Years later, a teacher of fine art at her own private studio, Julinya has become a specialist in the "Old Masters" style of oil paintings.

Extensive research and study makes it easy for her to combine under-painting and over-painting to create a variety of unique artistic works that last. “Years of experience makes the artist submissive to the characteristics of the media, if the art work is to outlive the artist,” Julinya explains.

Since then, Julinya has had exclusive exhibits in major cities throughout the world. She is also the recipient of important awards from Italy, USA, France, and from her home country, Brazil.
