About
The Artist Dalila
Dalila Petrillo is an artist from Guatemala, born in the
small town of Acaseguastlan, El Progreso in 1951. From an early age she
showed great interest in painting, following in the steps of her father,
also a painter and teacher of art in the Academy Of Arts in Guatemala
City. The artist has resided in Los Angeles since 1974. She attended college
in Glendale and Northridge. The events of September 11, 2001, and the
horrifying image of the twin towers in New York touched Dalia to the very
center of her heart. Shaken and saddened, she took on herself as a way
of healing the task of painting and following the piece of history that
had affected everyone's lives. Ever sicne then she has painted more about
other dates in the U.S> history. Dalila sincerely hopes that everyone
understands she hopes not to hurt or offend anyone, but to solely express
her thoughts and feelings through art.
