Painting Geisha by Maria Grino | Painting Figurative Mixed Portrait

Originally from Castellón, the Spanish artist began a pictorial practice in 2008. Self-taught in the field of visual arts, Maria trained in the knowledge and techniques of graphic design, and then worked for many years in the graphic design sector, before choosing in 2015 to devote herself exclusively to her art. Her extensive professional experience allowed her to develop her artistic fibre while asserting her visual acuity, which were also nourished by the daily observation of her father, Daniel Traver Griño (1931-2008), when he picked up his pencils or his brushes. Recognised for her resolutely singular artistic personality, Maria will be awarded, by the cultural association Aljama, the title of honorary president for the year 2018.
