Michelangelo D’Yarumal is a Colombian-American contemporary inspirational visual artist and poet who was born on September 21st in the room 3 of the Bristol Hotel in Yarumal, Antioquia, Colombia.
Since he was 6 year-old and because of the support of his family, especially from his mother, Michelangelo begun to find in painting a great joy due to his visual impairment.
In spring 2006 he traveled to Florence, Italy to study art and art history and visit its most notable historic sites. He was certified in Design and Painting after his studies at the institute “Accademia d’Arte AD’A di Firenze” and also Art History and Italian language at the Institute Michelangelo. During his stay, he made the decision to adopt “Michelangelo D’Yarumal” as his artistic name.
