ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Synopsis When I started to paint full time in watercolor, was in the Christmas of 2017. After a long conversation with my eldest son, we realized in unison that I had to have the courage to embrace this technique, which was nothing more than something that I had to do and to do. It had began a great passion. I soon realized that watercolor had something very important to teach me. Patience. I always painted watercolors on a small scale, but now the time was different. Soon I found myself faced with something I did not expect. The calm that she claimed almost as a living being, or as a plant that needs that, after planting the seed, that we let it grow. Going back to this year, 2021, I bring with me a great lesson from the previous year, the culmination of a journey of creative life. This lesson, learned under great tension, and attenuated by the endless hours of the studio is that in fact ... The rush can wait. When I realized this I saw myself as a balloon full of air without a knot that we dropped in the air. I realized everything in truth and I started with great pleasure, more than huge, passionate to the series that brought me this year to which I gave the same name and that will make an intersection between Acrylic and Watercolor, So wait for news full of life but without haste. It remains to be said that there is a common point in all this history, One color, Blue night, and the night as the only hour of the day where I unhurriedly find the longed for clarity. First series of watercolors. Datasheet Watercolor on handmade cotton paper made in India from where the command is chosen according to the precept. Measures- 42x32 Frames - Plexiglass box with birch wood behind.

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.
