I am a Brazilian-born, self-taught painter living in the San Francisco Bay Area. I work primarily in mixed media, and I am currently exploring abstract compositions driven by color, gesture, and emotions.

 

My work is guided by intuition, curiosity and experimentation. I approach color as a protagonist, and oftentimes, it is the starting point and an active force in my paintings.Through layers, textures and gestural movement, I explore putting out feelings, stories and memories into visual language.
