Hello guys.

Here I am changing my website again….yeah, I don’t know why, but I’m always feeling that I need to re-write or re-organize my stuff.

I’m starting this on a diferent way, trying to find the definitive way to show my stuff.

I’m studying hard anatomy as always, and I’m realizing that I’m improving my skills, but for sure I need to study twice that I’m doing.

Working with Oil based clay like Chavant and DimClay (brazilian oil-clay), is always good to get some nice tricks and points of view that just zbrush is hard to get. I’m trying to focuse on the shapes before going to detail, since I think is the most important thing on a sculpture.

Looking at some great sculptures and studies from the Masters Miguel Angelo, Bernini, Rodin, we can see that we don’t need detail to show what we are trying to say with the character and the piece.

I really appreciatte some words of John Brown, when he talks about the architecture of the soul.

Another one that I would like to invite you is Richard Macdonald. One of the best sculptors that I’ve ever seen. A lot of really nice poses and amazing anatomy….

I also would like to invite you to come to the third 3d brazilian workshop, September/6/2009, Campinas, São Paulo.

I’ll be there talking about zbrush and showing some clay sculptures too.

Rafael Grassetti, Dado Almeida, Tito Petri, Vinicius Fragata, Alex Oliver, my wife that suports me everyday talking about sculpture and etc, and everyone that enjoy my work.

I really wanna say thanks to Selwy that gave me some good words and tips some months ago.

I wanna say thanks for Andrew Bird bowl’s of fire, one of the best bands I’ve ever seen. I’m listening to this almost everyday, so, keep it up the good music dude!
