FLOR LECHT BIOGRAPHY
I was born in Cali Colombia in1967 From an early age I was interested in art, especially paintings. In the beginnings of my paintings I used The forms and color of nature. Little by little I discovered that I had many questions, and in this process of serching I went to the art school where I studied from 1991 to 1997 Since then my life revolves around the magical world of art. Another element that has become very important in the development of my art is my poetry, that is why I call my work " Visual poetry"
