first exhibit


at first i did not want to exhibit because i felt my work was like my child or like a mirror reflecting my thoughts and feelings. it did not feel right to put it out to the public. this man called jaiminho da mata kept pushing and pushing so i finally agreed. he exhibited for friends of his in brazil. i am very proud that all my work was bought. this is one of the paintings. i call it "mph". it is part of my post-modern posts series. it is oil on canvas.

hello world


this is my first time to blog and because it is my first time to blog i am sharing with you the first oil painting i ever sold. it is called "rembranksy" and i did it as a tribute to a painter i like very much called banksy. seeing his work made me know it is okay to joke in a work of art. before this one i did a painting called "our national hero" and seeing paintings by banksy afterwards made me sure it had been alright to do such a painting as "our national hero" so this one is in honor of him.
it is oil on canvas.
