2. Why art?
Art has an important influence on my life. I see art in everything, even in what people can nickname “garbage” The desire to take the paints and brushes when I come across, for example, with something wonderful to cross a screen, dazzles me. The desire to take a piece of clay and turn it into a “work of art,” fascinates me. The hours on end, when the inspiration comes and you can’t stop, is something that calls me, that wakes me up.

5. How do you work and address your subject?
When she lived in the Netherlands, I was often presented with many flowers offered by my husband. I took them, thanked him, and that gave me a huge desire to paint them. And I did it many times.

A curiosity: one night, while listening to the speech of former US President George W. Bush, I painted one of my works entitled “a supposed light at the bottom of the tunnel”
While reading a book, I just found something to paint.
I like to work on the themes of nature. Subjects that recall moments and special places.

8. What do you like in your work?
I like the strong colors, the light and the shadow, the perspective, the depth, to “feel” all that I am creating, as if it were a dialogue between me and the painting.

10. How you can see in the future (5 to 10 years)?
I see myself in a “growing” with more knowledge.
I would like to attend more art courses and develop new areas.
Have the opportunity to make more exhibitions, both individual and collective, in Portugal and abroad. Create and continue to sell my works to do and outside my country and thus feel more accomplished.
