I'm from Portugal, a special and talented place to be born and grow up. I love experimenting with colors and canvas, materials and concepts. I also love writing, and I'm the author of didactic books for children. I write poetry and short stories and have recently published as part of anthologies in Portugal. I come from a family of real artists (a table produced by one of my ancestors, Zeferino José Pinto, is for instance the highlight at the Stockmarket Palace in Porto, Portugal).
