This is my self-portrait, painted in oil on watercolor paper. It is one of the works in my portfolio for admission to the Repin Academy. In addition to capturing nuances of light and shadow, it represents my passion for painting and commitment to excellence in the visual arts.
This self-portrait is a statement of dedication to the ongoing pursuit of mastery in painting and drawing, reflecting my desire to be part of a prestigious institution like the Repin Academy that values artistic excellence.
Portrait of Flademir
Oil painting on canvas
40x60cm
2022
This is a portrait of my friend Flademir, the owner of Arena Fit. In the year 2022, he asked me to create a work of art based on a photograph from his time as a bodybuilder.
I was honored to accept the challenge and embark on this creative journey. In return, as a way to support my artistic endeavors, Flademir offered me lifetime access to Arena Fit for strength training and workouts.
Our friendship continues to this day, and I am grateful for the opportunity to support each other in our passions and goals.
Portrait of my uncle Natalino Tranquilo Ribeiro
Oil painting on canvas
20x30cm
2022
Recently, I had the opportunity to create something truly meaningful: an oil portrait of my dear uncle. This portrait was more than just a work of art; it was a gift filled with affection and appreciation. Capturing his unique expression and personality on canvas was a rewarding experience. Art has the power to celebrate family bonds and immortalize precious moments, and I am grateful for the chance to express my love through painting.
Bananas
Oil painting on canvas
20x20cm
2023
This project was one of the first where I chose not to use a photograph as a reference. By closely observing the texture, colors, and shapes of these common fruits, I discovered a world of details that often go unnoticed.
Through my artistic interpretation, I was able to highlight the simplicity and beauty of bananas in a unique way. It was an exciting challenge and a testament to how inspiration can be found anywhere, even in the simplest things in life.
