Allegro afetuoso, is an andamento dressed in a special tenderness, which is comparable to the moment I cross. thats why I gave this name to this first series of watercolors. Allegro is a progress, walk forward ...

Why a special moment? For those of you who come here to visit, you see that I paint acrylic, but my great passion has always been watercolor, and having already painted many, I never dedicated myself to this medium full time, and that was the happiest decision I made at the end of last year.

When I followed the path of my heart, all that I needed  appeared as Goethe said,  help appear everywhere that we never imagined.

This series, of 20 watercolors, has in itself a great moment of happiness that passes a moment in which a decision is taken independently of the consequences, but in total confidence.

The paper on which I paint is totally handmade, made in India, in a company that comes from the time of Gandhi, and which plays the role of watercolor from cotton, cotton rag. It is a paper that is a work of art, beautiful, thick, irregular, magical. The time to receive these sheets is magic to me. Hope for you too. Archival , acid-free and made to last the life of any person, and in total respect for nature, just like the inks I use, are natural.

Framed on a plexiglass cristal and orange color designed by me. Back in wood ready to hang. 

The painting ships in a beautiful wood box.

My painting began in the sweetest memory of my childhood of seeing my father always in love with music. He worked with classical music all his life and had a vinyl shop were I went to help him many times, and I remember the days when he came home late and closed himself to his zen moment and flooded our beds with Chopin, Bach and Ravel. When I started painting, first figurative, my search was always on abstracts, like a first love, so It all made sense when a kind of bridge built itself in the perfect timimming, between my work and music and the power of abstraction as a unique and individual inner sound.. When I was ready and had the courage to start painting abstract, I immediately perceived the intellectual demand that my choice brought me. There was behind the chosen forms a deep sense of being. That was when Bach came and gave meaning to my work. He brought me back the memories of my father's music, and that was the leap to interpret my favorite compositions on canvas like a golden hand that was given to me by fate, as in a dialogue between me and the composer or interpreter. It has become an exchange of emotions and the beginning of a long road leading me to the light in all themes that my interior need to provide, with the knowledge that it takes only one man to change something for the better in other people's lives. Art comes to the artist as a responsibility to serve. My name*s meaning conjuncts Grace (Graça) and Peace (Paz) and I born at 4 of March 1967 in Porto, and l presently live and works in the Rural north of Portugal in Minho.
