My artistic life started
in school, where Art
was my favorite subject.
Coming from a family where Art was part of our culture, it
was natural for me to follow my preferences.
Our father, I come from a large family, taught me from early
age the beauty of Art, Writing, Poetry,
Sculpture, Acting ,Music Singing, Dancing, Painting.
We travelled visiting museums, sat in front of famous
paintings learned to look at them, while he explained who the painter was and all
about each particular Artist and the story behind the painting.
I studied foreign languages, English,
French, Spanish, German,
Italian, Portuguese. This took me
to different countries where I saw and met new forms of Art!
Lived in Rio de Janeiro, here I learned to paint china wear,
porcelain. The reason for this
“apprentisage”was connected to another activity I had in Brasil.
I had a business of special Portuguese Convent Deserts, all
hand made, largely appreciated in
Brasil, this was a boom!
So I painted porcelain recipients, such as bowls, plates,
cups, etc and then put the exquisite deserts inside… It was quite a nice
experience.
Back in Portugal, started with Oils, taught by a famous
Portuguese portraitist Nuno Guimarães,
for eight years, loved and
developed my skills, then experienced
Acrylics, an easy media felt after the learning on ils.
Watercolour was my next big crush which remains until today.
Being administrator of IWS Portugal, keeps me in contact
with the watercolour world. Having participated in courses with great masters,
such as George Politis Greece, Liu Yi,
China, Jean Haines England, Fabio Cembranelli Brasil, Idoia Lasagabaster
Spain, Eudes Correia Portugal.
Exhibitions in
Portugal, Greece, Turkey, Denmark, Italy, Pakistan.
Hope to continue this crush on watercolours discovering the
magic in it and keep on learning always…
