ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Synopse. Watercolor was a teacher for me from the moment I took up my calling within the art that was a great passion for this medium. I knew I wanted to exaggerate the expression and the size, but I didn't know that either the medium itself or the paper would teach me so much about something we're all here to learn. About timing, each one's timing and the internal space that expands and contracts in reaction to that integrity or the lack of it. As soon as I started to paint, the days seemed to run with no time because the rush was inexhaustible and during the night the paper took on its own expression in expansion and contraction of the creative energy impressed in it. Watercolor is much about the true love for paper. This is Rag paper, handmade in India. Rag paper is an amazing quality paper that passed the test of time through out history keeping safe the most important documents. I dedicated an whole here searching papers and I still do.

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.
