RAFFAELLA SILVI(Ellaví): I attended the Art High School (ind.Architecture) at the Istituto S. Orsola in Rome graduating in 1989, the same year I began my studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome in via Ripetta in the School of Painting held by Prof. Brunori where I was able to learn the technique of tempera painting and the related colour scales; later with Prof. A. Trotti I was able to deepen the figurative genre and I had the opportunity to express myself independently with the oil technique by completing my studies and graduating with flying colours in 1993 I then attended a course in Restoration of the painting at the Centre for Modern Educational Professions, concluding in 1996 with flying colours.
