Lila Brochá—meaning “purple brush”—is the artistic identity of Maria Victoria Walker, a mixed media artist whose work explores storytelling through color, texture, and layered composition. Her paintings, often whimsical and vibrant, reflect personal memory, emotion, and transformation, offering viewers a visual meditation on nature, movement, and the rhythms of urban life. Each piece invites curiosity and introspection, encouraging connection through pattern, form, and feeling.
Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, Maria Victoria immigrated to the United States in 1989. While building a successful career in both finance and data architecture—and raising a family—she painted in the margins of her day-to-day life, developing her artistic voice as a self-taught creative.
Since retiring in 2021, art has become her full-time pursuit. That same year, she joined SAGE Green Bay and later, in 2022, became a member of the Green Bay Art Colony and joined Wisconsin Visual Artists in 2025. Over the past three years, she has participated in SAGE Green Bay’s Toy Maker’s Fundraiser at the Neville Public Museum. As a member of the Green Bay Art Colony, she has exhibited at their Annual Juried Exhibit at the Neville since 2022
