Artist Statement:
I was born on the state of Ceará - one of the most beautiful coastlines of northeast Brasil.
Educated in a military environment and a Mormon family (no longer Mormon)from early age, he had the opportunity to travel throughout his home land!
Unconsciously i created a massive appetite for different habits, customs and cultures and as teenager i realized how privileged and grateful i was to be able to experience so much. From childhood to adult life i did the usual things: go to school; finish university - but doing so only to please in part my family.
When i was 23 he decided to make sense of my life and my place in the world. This would be the most difficult decision i would make in my life. Against all the odds i started to travel all over South America, visiting Chile, Peru, Colombia, Argentina, Uruguay. Survival was a priority. To maintain my self on a daily basis i started to produce arts and crafts. And i started to paint. This is when the magic started. i saw how amazing mother nature is and how much she has to offer in terms of beauty, color and texture. I felt that i was on a mission, and i had to share my experience with everyone. I took a plane and flew to Europe; London.
