"The colors of the world come alive on my canvas, my brush serves as my instrument."
Vita / Lebenslauf:
I was born and raised in the Alfama District of Lisbon, Portugal. Alfama is the heart and soul of the Portuguese people; I feel that I reflect this heart and soul through my paintings. I have also been greatly inspired by nature and the environment around me. I love using colors (of the world). I am basically a self-taught artist, with some formal art training in Lisbon, Portugal.
I have exhibited my artwork in the St. Augustine Art Association, and have won the "Pot 'O Gold" Award while there. I have also exhibited in several Art Galleries around St. Augustine. I was featured artist for the Month of November 2007 in the Abbott Tract Artist's Gallery, St. Augustine, Fl; The Gallery Artfest, on Duval St., Key West, Fl; The Lyssa Morgan Gallery, in Tampa Fl, and invited to participate in the "Ritmo Caliente" Latin Jazz & Art Show at the Casselberry City Hall, Casselberry, Fl (3/9 -4/27, 2007); and exhibited in the Casselberry Art House (from Nov. 1 - Nov. 30, 2007), for the 2008 Rotary Calendar Artists Show, my painting "The Vineyards" was chosen for this 2008 calendar (month of November), I was a participant in the 4th Annual Florida Artists Registry.com members show (Juried exihibit) at the Gallery in Avalon, Orlando, Fl.
