Jefferson Cabral attended the Publicity and Marketing course
at the Sociedade Propagadora de Belas Artes [The Fine Arts
Diffusing Society] of the Rio de Janeiro Arts and Crafts Lyceum,
acting as a trainee in some publicity agencies, creating logos
and developing storyboards. At this phase, he also worked
as an apprentice at the studio of the awarded publicity illustrator
Nilton Ramalho.
In 1988 he went to London to study and to work for the Laraine
Ashton Models Agency, a job which took him to other jobs in
other European capitals.
In 1989, he attended graphic-design, computer graphics and
storyboard courses at The Royal Borough of Kensington and
Chelsea.
In 1991 he returns to Brazil, where he attends to other courses
related to graphic arts and to computer graphics.
Decorative painting is an area which crossed the artist’s
way, even being totally unaware of the fact that it would
then become his passion. He started working for the highlights
of the Brazilian architecture. His clientele includes international
VIPs and they range from simple people like the artist himself
to Television Network owners, bankers, exporters, etc.
His work is widely recognized and respected, and his name
has been mentioned in several means of communication. He has
also been the subject of several interviews.
One of his outstanding Trompe L’oeil works is in the
living room of Indonesian Empress Dewi Sukarno’s luxurious
apartment at Park Avenue in Manhattan, NY.
His art continues to add refinement to the best homes and
offices in Brazil.
