I was born in Sao Luis do Maranhao in Brazil and I am based in Berlin. My artistic work is inpired by my observations of the world and its beauties and deficiencies. In my painting I try to reproduce with colours and shapes what I see and perceive around me. And by creating art I also celebrate my friendship with life.

As a student I had concentrated for many years on drawing with graphite and chalk and gave a special dedication to portraits. I therafter took a long break during which I committed myself to ballet dancing but I always knew I would go back to painting one day. After more than ten years without drawing, I started to experiment with painting and colours and discovered the pleasure and freedom of abstract art.
