cerezas.jpg (2010) Painting by Rogelio Ramallo

I was born in Rio Cuarto, a small city in the province of Córdoba, in Argentina. A month and a few days before they dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. I did elementary school in a Catholic school. Maybe that's why I'm an agnostic. When I was fifteen, I started to get interested in Art. I was fascinated by the comic drawings of Hugo Pratt, Alberto Brescia, Milton Canniff, Alex Raymond and the great Burne Hogarth. And I was attracted by the paintings of Renoir, Manet, Rubens, Miguel Angel and the Rencentists. I picked up the drawings from a classmate and copied them. He had many girls who admired him for his skill with the pencil. Soon, I also had admirers, I quickly learned to draw. I have always been a self-taught person and I learned only all the techniques of drawing and painting, even complex ones such as the airbrush and computer programs such as the 3D StudioMax. Now I dedicate myself with enthusiasm to oil, tempera, watercolor and pastel. And always the pencil drawing.
