Manuel Brito (Venezuela) began to paint after he began working as an assistant in the art workshop of the master Armando Villalón in 1987. Surrounded by a creative environment, his interest in painting was born. The master Villalón notices his talent and introduces him to art under his direction. Even today they share a workshop.

The first steps of Manuel Brito were guided towards the understanding and practice of formal elements, “how a drawing is made, how it is composed, how an atmosphere is formed”.
