Julio Cuyro Ccahua

"I lend breath to my figures so they appear alive... The Andean inhabitant is my best source of inspiration."

In the exuberant forest of modern Peruvian fine arts emerges from Cuzco the agitated paintbrush of Julio Cuyro (born in... Cuzco in 1967). The brush masterfully expresses the enigmas and revelations of the Empire of the Sun's past splendor. Graduate of the Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes del Cuzco, Cuyro is a painter who lends testimony to history with captivating color and mystery. His phantasmagoric subjects are impregnated with life — breaking the secular silence through color and form.

"I have painted since my adolescence, given that I'm a member of a family of artisans from Cuzco. My painting is, in one form or another, a testimonial — rescuing and, at the same time, valuing episodes from our past that can be found in the shadow of legends. However I don't work alone. I'm affiliated with the 'Asociación de Artistas del Cuzco' where I paint full-time.

"I work with oils, watercolors, and acrylics. My favorite colors are warm tones — earthen hues and ochres. I'm always coming up with ideas, and I immediately make a preliminary sketch, then comes the lineal composition and the black and white tonal gradation. Once the idea is resolved, it is passed onto the canvas — there the final definition of light and shadow is concretized, and there it stays. My pictorial tendencies could be termed figurative expression. I lend breath to my figures so they appear alive. My favorite are the Varayoc, or Andean collectives, who live at altitudes of 3400-4000 meters above sea level. The Andean inhabitant is my best source of inspiration.

"My works have been exhibited in the Instituto Nacional de Cultura (INC), and also in the Instituto Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (ICPNA) de Lima. I was a finalist in the exhibition of ICPNA in 1998, that same year winning the ICPNA prize in painting. In 2021, I received the Cuzco Arts Award. I consider that my art deserves attention for its substantial, expressive value of exposing Peru's culture in a simple and happy manner, which, for me is expressing the truth."

Take your measurements with the tape measure over your under garments. If your measurements fall between sizes you may prefer the next larger size. Inseam, skirt and dress lengths vary by style and will be listed in the item description. Our sweaters are knit in standard American sizes, however actual measurements vary by style.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

LOW WAIST

Measure around the body approximately 1.5" below the natural waist (above). This is the area where most pants and skirts actually fit.

HIPS

Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of the body approx 7"-8" below the waist.

NECK

SLEEVE

Bend elbow slightly and starting at the center back of the neck, measure across the shoulder, to the elbow and down to the wrist.

INSEAM

Our standard inseam length for women is 32" and 34" for men; however inseam measurements will vary slightly by style.

 

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.
