About
I am a visual artist living and working in a small city in the Portuguese west coast. Since 2002 I have been doing both digital and analog works for clients and art projects, mostly culturally focused, under a wide variety of means, formats or mediums.
I have a passion for figurative representations and grid compositions, sometimes organically unbalanced, sometimes made from spontaneous thoughts and words. At the present, I'm working in user interface investigation, as well as illustration concepts allied in different fields, such as the collage project "fitacola" (be.net/fitacola).
I am always eager to learn more and be challenged with new projects, ideas and methods, always using my visual and technique experience to intrigue a spectator or solve people's problems -
