A lovely moment, a lovely photo

I went to one of the oldest theatres in Rio de Janeiro with my daughter and a group of friends today. It is more than a hundred years old. I fell in love with the picture on the wall. It is magneficent. So I had to take a photo of it because I wanted to share that beauty with everybody. On the foreground you can see my daughter and me. On the background, the photo I love.

Strike a pose

“The secret to modeling is not being perfect. What one needs is a face that people can identify in a second. You have to be given what’s needed by nature, and what’s needed is to bring something new.”

I colored the photo but I confess I am not good at it. Below is the original picture:

Pure Magic

A Poetic Moment

A Magical Realm

I have been quite inspired lately and with some free time - What a treasure! So I created two vintage works for Take a Word. 

Today is a special day around the world. It symbolizes rebirth  and stands for things which seem to have been forgotten by many people. Anyway, Happy Easter! Happy Ostara! 

Love and Light!

Gipsy Dance

Gipsy Dance is as popular as the samba here in my country and I love it. If you have never heard of it, below there's video. This work is also a tribute to the Gipsy people. Their happiness is contagious. Their culture is amazing.
