Grácio Freitas

Citizen of the Underwater Kingdom 🔱


Born in the heart of the Douro wine region, Grácio Freitas has always had a natural inclination towards the arts. Despite having a career in the Navy, specializing in submarines, and a period in business, he has always been accompanied by a deep desire to be creative. Since 1990 he has dedicated himself to painting, using the magic of color to represent the sea and its inhabitants in a surreal way, creating forms inspired by dreams.
