"Become
what you are" - Friedrich Nietzsche
I'm a self-taught artist, born and raised in Brazil. I live in Annapolis,
Maryland, USA.
My method in art is to simply allow my moods to direct my creativity,
wherever it wants to go.
I feel that I'm merely an instrument through which the artistic process
evolves.
Through the use of bright, upbeat colors, I hope that my art is able
to transport the viewer above the daily grind
and into a world of freedom within. I love that my art seems to make
people smile.
My
mom is also a painter. Please visit her
Etsy shop.

EXHIBITS:
I'm
an Internet based artist. My customers are mostly comprised of very
nice people I've never met in person,
and my art lives in scattered places all over the world, many of which
I'll never get to visit.
I don't seek local exhibits or promotions. Not yet. So far, the few
exhibits I've participated in
happened because I got approached by someone, or just stumbled upon.
And here they are:
