Born in the city of Tacna in Peru, Eugenio is a very promising young Peruvian artist. Eugenio Cohalia studied at the Beaux-Arts Superior School of Tacna, where he graduated with high honors in painting. He has also achieved superior studies at l’École des beaux-arts in Lima, Peru. He paints urban scenes in which the people within the painting seem somewhat blurred compared to the cityscape. Compositions are filled with luminous touches of vivid color that reflect the artists fascination towards city life. There is a spectacular interaction between light and movement found in his paintings. Cohalia is under 30 and has already participated in at least 30 exhibitions. Westport River Gallery has several New York City pictures available
