My work focuses on portraiture and intimacy between loved ones and objects. I want to show the tenderness that can be experienced in this world through selective simplicity and tiny details. With our current socio-political cliamte, I think it is important to recognize these often unnoticed moments in our daily lives, and to remember that they exist. My paintings help me move forward openly, by presenting what is good in our world.
I'm also part owner of Pilgrim Paper Co. -- a paper goods company based in Seattle, where I currently live!
I am an Illustrator based in Lisbon but always moving between Lisbon- Vilnius and Berlin. I create colorful illustrations inspired by cultures, traveling and social issues.
