Enduring...

Like I said in the last post, I've been working in  a new set of paintings about Lisbon, but dont want to depicte the streets as they are, but instead the people, the actions, the feelings..It's not an easy task, but I believe as an artist, its a way to grow and learn.

A few ago I was in Portugal, and couldn't not leave without visiting the Galerie of a good friend of mine, at the Altis Hotel.we have known each other since little kids, and now he owns a Galerie. But its not just a Galerie.He works with the best known artists from Portugal and abroad. Names like Cruzeiro Seixas, Artur Bual, Alfredo Luz, Julio REsende,among others are frequent in his walls, and for my delight I could always enjoy the pleasure of being there admiring those works.

Now, as I slowly raise as an artist, I'll be able to work with him, exhibitng my works and try to sell them. When yo ustart as an artist there are lots of ups and downs, getting shows and sell its the hardest part, but you have always to try your best. As for me, I go through different stages, right now I'm painting and hope to have by the end of the Summer enough work to show around.

Lately I've been busy with paintings and drawings about Lisbon..Not in  the way that people normally depicte it, with streets and buildings, etc..but I focus more on the people, on the feelings, the neighbourhoods...On the songs that Fado represents, in the trams, going up and down, etc...Recently , and because I dont have much time , Im working on this new one...
