About the Author

Next year I will be completing my 70 years. I have always been curious, passionate about all the arts. But painting, in addition to passion, was an approximation with desire and the possibility of fulfillment. Rare moments have I had to fulfill this wish. Whenever Siron asked if I was painting, he replied that sometimes I committed a "crime"; he would add: paint on, paint on...

What I had been doing "bisexually" was extrapolated in the pandemic. In six months, I painted more than I had in sixty years... I don't sign my paintings. This is explained by the immense respect I have for all the great masters of painting. I've never sold one, nor do I intend to sell one.

All will be donated to an entity that already exists or that will be created, linked to the artistic development of needy young people, preferably painting, to continue honoring the tradition of Goiás in this very important form of cultural manifestation.

I believe in artistic education as a road to human knowledge
