About Maria Gertrudes MARIA GERTRUDES COELHO, the Brazilian artist who produces original paintings in the styles of Joseph Turner, Van Gogh, Monet, Picasso, Renoir and a dozen other great impressionists is back in the area to hold FREE public painting session followed by silent auctions. Proceedings go directly to a charity Foundation (Fundação Jeronimo Mendonça) in the interior town of Ituiutaba, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in support of educational efforts for local orphans and vulnerable children and adolescents. This is Maria Gertrudes' fourth visit to the US. During her previous visits in 2001 and 2003 she performed over 20 sessions, produced and sold nearly 250 paintings in various locations, including institutions such as the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank in Washington D.C. The funds she's been able to raise with her paintings have allowed her to almost finish the construction phase of the Foundation, with 14 rooms and a large recreational area dedicated to ongoing workshops organized by volunteers on all types of artistic and professional education. Maria Gertrudes has enchanted thousands of people throughout the world with her phenomenal artistic gifts, producing over 4,500 paintings since 1996. THE WASHINGTON POST dedicated half a page to her work in the Arts Session, published in July 12, 2001. Maria Gertrudes is back from Brazil, and this might be your last chance to purchase one of her beautiful paintings. Maria Gertrudes started to paint in 1996, divinely inspired by Joseph Turner, and at the time she was told that her mission was to complete 5,000 paintings. Maria Gertrudes will be presenting in several locations during her stay in the US. |
