Atelier Fernanda Rodante 2.jpg

BIOGRAPHY

Fernanda Rodante was born on the 27th of September 1975

in São Paulo, Brazil.
She began to paint at the age of 21, 

during the psychology university.

In the same month she graduated, 

she held her first individual exhibition.
The success of that exhibition changed her destiny forever.
After a year of solitary painting,

she sought out her first teacher,

the Argentine João Carlos Pensa,
with whom she studied for three years

and deepened her knowledge of realistic painting.
Her second teacher was Jorge Branco,

with whom she studied for a year
and deepened her knowledge of expressionist art.
The third teacher, with whom she studied for two years,

was Chen Kong FANG, a Chinese grandmaster based in Brazil.

With him Fernanda found her brushstroke, her painting style

that accompanies her to this day.

MEANING

Art has its noblest purpose

in inspiring and uplifting the human soul.
For me, painting is celebrating life,

it is recording my passage through this peculiar planet,

in a search for conscience

and in defense of vulnerable beings.
