Petterson Silva

Petterson Silva was born in Rondonópolis, in the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso. He grew up in total communion with nature: he took an interest in the birds of the region, frequently bathed in the Red River and forged special relationships with the Amazonian Indians. As a young virtuoso, he studied for a time at the Centro Universitário Belas Artes in São Paulo. He ended his studies to seize “a golden opportunity". Success was immediate.
