ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Synopsis How is a painting born? For me it is born from the moment I study, or develop a topic in my personal, private or intimate life. Often or, better said, most of the time, they are moments of limit, insights (which are seen with the heart and not with the physical eye), pivotal moments of evolution from which I live more in peace. Around a theme, in shapes, brands, ideas, colors. Colors with a fundamental role in emotional evolution. I know how much they affect us sensitive human beings. Afterwards, I put the paintings inside my drawers, in “infirmary” mode of “recovery” so that they win their soul and I only put them out to the public when my soul sees itself inside the work. That's how art is born. These two tables belong to a phase relating to the year 2020. Some stayed overnight until 2021. They talk about finding peace in the midst of the storm. Medium - Acrylic and plaster on cod paper. Frame - Designed by me in wood and painted in dark bottle green Measurements - 112x88x4

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.
