Apart from the work I do as a Family Portrait Photographer in Katy, Texas,
I have also done some other works that were featured in various places.
Some are Fine Art Works and others are contributions
for various sources as a photographer .
Below you can find links and info of my work across the web.
Gallery 25NÂ is an online art gallery featuring artists from all over the world. They'll be holding a group exhibition starting September 10th, 2015m with works of other 10 artists. Five of my fine art work have been selected for the Semi-Annual Open ll, with the support of Art Competition.net.
BE U Exhibition
A group exhibition of 30 plus artists from around the world that happened on the month of April thru May of 2014, at the Be Human Gallery in the City Center, Houston, TX.Â
Two of my works were in this group - 'Jen In The Pool' and 'Not Wanted' but I also had the privilege of seeing with my naked eyes the amazing photographs of some of my fellow photographers, like the work of Kristin Villano, Bonnie and Gabe and the extra talented Joshua Malik. Both art pieces are of English model Jen Brooke. Jen is one of Brooke Shaden's most phenomenal models and I love her delicate way of posing.
My piece "Not Wanted" won second place among the 70 plus pieces of work hanging on the wall of BeHuman Gallery and juries were Brooke Shaden, Shelley Calton and Lindsay Adler. Brooke Shaden is a Fine Art Photographer from Lancaster and has been inspiring many artists around the world with her Promoting Passion Project.Â
Exhibition currently in Portland, Oregon and still traveling in the US.
I have had the honor to be a contributor to the Brazilian Community in Houston both with imagery and also with articles written in Portuguese to the community. The magazine has been growing and having an enormous amount of readers, with informative content to Brazilians living outside Brazil. The Revista Brasilianas has been of great learning for me as I have to bone up my written Portuguese and deliver a good article to the community.
Blogger Susie Tommaney featured some of my images of the art exhibition for Chell Vassallo, at the Galleria Regina in Houston on her blog at the Houston Press online. The article featured artist Chell Vassallo, a Brazilian visual artist living in Richmond, Texas. Her works are truly beautiful and she will work with any media, from charcoal to oil and she also teaches students how to make art at her Silver Street Studio in Houston, Texas.Â
