About The Artist

My name is Patrizia Diamante. I was born in Faenza in 1963 from family of potters. I started painting in 14 years, self-taught. After graduating from graphic design, in 1982 I enrolled at the Maestro Goffredo Trovarelli's school and graduated in 1986 with highest honours at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze at the school of painting of the Maestro Silvio Loffredo, who was already a student of Oskar Kokoshka. Specializing in portrait with crayons and pencils on paper and oil on canvas, has participated at many personal and collective exhibitions. I worked as a ceramist, muralist and decorator window dresser. I live and work in Modigliana, a nice little town close to Bologna, Italy. I also produced drawings for tattoo, t-shirts, cartoons and newspaper logos, postcards, book covers, editorial projects, etc. I teach painting from life (portrait, still life, landscape) and organize art workshop with children. My works are in numerous public and private collections in Italy and abroad. For more informations you can visite my artwork site https://diamantestudio.jimdo.com/
