Aldina Mateus

Aldina discovers painting in 2012 and decides to join the Association "La Palette d'Ecquevilly" to take her first drawing lessons and more particularly painting. It was the start of an extraordinary discovery ... And since then, Aldina has never left her brushes.

She invests more and more in this activity, explores, alone, the artistic field, which allows her to acquire various working techniques. She then devotes hours and hours to her new passion, going so far as to produce several paintings per week. The encouragement of her family led Aldina to post some photos of her creations on social networks, allowing her to benefit from the support of a friend, Head of a travel agency, who offered to exhibit some paintings.

She will meet Stéphane Le Maner, until then Head of Exhibitions at the Hôtel Dieu Museum in Mantes-la-Jolie. Following the advice of the latter, Aldina undertakes to improve her method by working by theme, series, large format ... and participates in group exhibitions in her region.

From her first exhibitions, she won the Public Prize, Special Jury Prize and Mantevillois Arts Prize for two of her works ... Several Parisian galleries have appreciated her talent through her favorite theme of femininity and exhibited ...
