Silvana was born in Vittoria, Italy, on 2nd April of 1961, later in life, moves to Portugal where she still lives.
Her grandfather and her father, Maestro of Art In the International Academy of Rome, are her first main inspiration and first teacher in painting.
Mastering the oil on canvas, in the beginning of her career, her markedly realistic works focus in landscapes, in the vivacious and colorful Nature of her favorite places in Italy, Switzerland and Portugal, which causes intense emotions that she decides to engrave on canvas.
Lately her dialogues with canvas focus on women and cats. Her artworks are full of light and sensitivity that makes part her own soul. Her paintings are a language that allows to express emotions, thoughts and written endearments in a memory book, as the artist says: Painting is like navigating in the pages of an imaginary book.
