Guido Vedovato is one of the best-known Naïve artists. He was born in Vicenza, northern part of Italy in 1961. He lives and works in Camisano Vicentino. He graduated as an economist and had no artist scholar background. Yugoslavian Naïve art had a big effect on his works. It made him start painting at the end of the 1970s. At the beginning it was just one of his hobbies, however later it became his passion.
He tries to depict short stories in his paintings. Some of his well-known paintings depict animals in the night, but—as he said, he prefers to paint people.
