The Brazilian
The Brazilian
Oil paint on Gessobord*
Size: 30.5 x 30.5 x 2.3 cm
When I met this extraordinary gentleman in a remote Brazilian village, his mischievous smile and lively eyes immediately caught my attention. His face tells the story of a life well-lived, with every wrinkle marking an adventure or a memory. Through this painting, I aimed to capture not just his appearance, but the sense of joy and vitality that radiated from him. As you look into his eyes, what do you see? Do they hint at the stories he’s yet to share?
