> STATEMENT
Born in Brazil in 1962, Fernando Ferreira de Araujo has been painting for over 18 years. For the past four years he has been actively engaged in the international art scene through solo and group shows in major cities, such as: New York, San Francisco, Paris, Sao Paulo and Miami. He creates most of his works in his studio on the Upper East Side in Manhattan. However, he often finds inspiration at The Art Students League of New York, where he became a member in 2004.
1989 was a turning point in his life. Among hundreds of artists, he was one of the few artists chosen by the "Museu do Estado de Pernanmbuco", in Recife Brazil, to represent rising new talents. This accolade was instrumental in his later decision to devote himself to a new course in life. That change came in 1999 when he left everything behind and chose to take to the canvas as a full time artist. He moved to New York in 2003 where he currently lives and works.
