In this dreamlike creation, organic curves of nature intertwine with the ethereal presence of a guardian spirit, brought to life through my strokes in oil pastel. The artwork encapsulates protection, warmth, and introspection, with surreal elements embodied by the symbolic heron, conveying both vigilance and grace. Each hue and line resonate with the essence of safeguarding life's delicate balance, inviting viewers to reflect on the guardianship within and around them. The piece enriches spaces with tranquility and contemplation. This is a love story portraying a woman's yearning and the distant care of her beloved navigating the challenges of daily life. It serves as a tribute to caretakers, protectors, and nurturers—those who long for their partner's return. The artwork unveils an idyllic romanticism, highlighting the often overlooked strength of the housewife. Despite societal misconceptions, her power lies in both fortitude and deep sweetness. This figure, capable of moving mountains to create a home, also provides a welcoming lap for those who return, becoming a safe harbor for yearning souls. This piece, rendered in oil pastel on 290g linen-textured Canson paper, encapsulates the essence of my introspective journey. This work will follow, rolled up in a tube, signed by the artist, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Luís Bastos, born in Elvas on March 2, 1975 and currently residing in the charming village of Sesimbra since his early days, is a notable Portuguese artist whose works transcend the conventional boundaries of art. His preferred themes revolve around depth psychology and philosophy, where art manifests itself as an extension of the human soul. Gifted with a unique talent for painting and drawing since childhood, the artist faced notable challenges during his youth. The initial influence of a professor whose authoritarian and traumatizing characteristics, combined with social and cultural adversities, left an indelible mark on his academic journey, thus determining his ability to fully explore his talent in this context. Today, almost 50 years old, the artist reflects maturely on how these experiences conditioned his relationship with art and his professional practice. In 2018, as an act of liberation from a troubled life, marked by emotional and professional turmoil, Luís Bastos found a transformative escape in art. A marital separation, permeated by a depressive emotional state, gave way to a new phase of self-discovery and artistic expression. He decides to invest professionally in his passion and rents a store where he immerses himself intensely in artistic creation. His work, which excels in a unique magic, has won admirers not only nationally, but also internationally, with collectors in the USA, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Australia, Canada, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Spain, Italy, among other countries. Luís Bastos states with conviction that art not only transformed his life, but also represents the beginning of a journey that aims to recreate not only what is visible, but, above all, what one feels, therefore, as he poignantly puts it : "The essential is invisible to the eyes."
