“Floating mask” Half mine , half a student’s

Fire glazed & bobbin laced butterfly

To depict colour closer to light - inks made with indigo, sorrel root, pommegranate skin and cochineal

Me and my nephew playing with our masks - he’s a lion and I’m a butterfly...

Another kind of sunset

Blowing an ocarina (my student’s) made in clay and chrome oxide green

Testing the interphone:

¡ Llegó la primavera al hemisferio sur!

Your highness - ypê rosa - majestade - Primavera

Hold that man I love so much...

My favourite blooming perfume:

About bobbin lace...

Bobbin lace printed/pressed on clay; glazes’ recipes my own made (!)

Eterno Hermeto Pascoal

That I’ll be leaving in the Fairest of the Seasons...

A clay hand caressing me

Collage about the short film“the lighthouse” by Po Chou Chi

A self portrait (much as a self sketch portrait) in watercolour (2013)

A bee landing on the indigo foam during índigo (plant) extraction.

During the pandemic I used to sit by some bromeliads and bee watch. The carrying of pollen seemed to be something erotic.

A wild dune orchid (Epidendrum fulgens), my passion -

Me and my mom, donating blood 🩸

When I found a fallen nest made with horse mane...(it was 2020)

Fragments of seashells- Inks made of Indigo, cochineal, avocado pits, pommegranate skin, sorrel roots -

O meu ‘trio fantástico’

Escrevi este soneto para uma amiga:

Ruining my cousin’s sea photo

- I follow with my eyes ‘till they crash...

Let’s think about this... after Magritte (1929)

When I hosted a friend from Bahia! (March, ‘25)

Fresh cosmos’ petals for bright orange ink.

With some friends, when we had a picnic-drawing faces session- and laughing.

When a butterfly landed on my cheek.

At an experimental pottery fair, during a carnival (2023). My hair as puffy as the heat...

Meanwhile it's winter in the southern hemisphere.

Yellow and blue morning glory (Commelina catharinensis, C. diffusa) 10x - watercolour (2018)
