Scorpio Painting

I'm a Brazilian artist living in Los Angeles. I have a crazy passion for making art. My intent is to create art that is fun, beautiful and uplifting. In my work, I tend to intertwine the vibrancy of my Brazilian heritage, spiritual themes, and pop culture. I’ve been a meditator for 7 years. It was within a couple of months of starting to mediate that I felt an impulse to begin drawing and painting. Everything I learned and created in my art career has been a direct result of my spiritual practice. I didn’t even know I could draw until I started meditating and followed my impulse to grab a charcoal pencil and paper. Now, I often see a complete painting in my mind’s eye while meditating. From that point on, all I have to do is sit in front of the canvas and execute.
