Marcus Penido

I am a artist working on paintings ,sculptures and urban works.
.
My inspiration is life in all ways.

In the abstract creations
I work the limits between rational and spontanety,
In the figurative I am inpired by
simple things, urban life, and
the harmony of nature ,
the mistery off the citys,
