Art by Jorge Escalante Vinces

Born in Lima, Peru, on December 12, 1954, Jorge Escalante Vince moved to Italy in 1979. Married and retired. A self-taught artist, Jorge began painting in May 2020, initially following online lessons during the COVID pandemic. He later furthered his education with in-person lessons taught by renowned masters of the AIA (Italian Watercolourists Association of Milan). In 2025, he was admitted as a member of the AIA (Italian Watercolourists Association). His work focuses primarily on watercolour on paper, a technique that allows him to express delicacy and chromatic depth. His fresh approach, marked by a careful use of transparency and fluidity of colour, lends his works a lyrical and evocative atmosphere. Although his artistic career is relatively recent, he has participated in several national and international exhibitions and competitions, and his work has recently been selected in numerous competitions, receiving awards and mentions.
