Paulo Quirino

This is another drawing that I did with Marcelo Delamanha, is one of the series “Faces” that we are doing together.

Yesterday I started creating my own letter type…till now, I only created from “A” to “F” but I also intent to create the numbers and symbols like “! @ # $”, somethings like this…

I have just finished this acrylic paint. I really liked but unintentionally I did a “tear” on the canvas… =/

I’m working on my virtual portifolio and i hope to be done soon…
This artwork will be cover of this website.

The Festina Lente is a band about 5 brazilian kids that starving for different things playing together since 2004.
We just recorded a debut-ep called “tropical predial” in 2006. By now we are giving a break and hopefully coming back soon. You can listen our stuff on myspace =)

The title of this illustration is in portuguese because it is an expression that loses all the sense if I translate, but literally means “the casings heart.”
. . .
I always tried to create some abstract illustration … but I never came to a satisfactory result. In these last days I started to read a book about Gustav Klimt works. This illustration is a reference of his paintings.
I hope that here for a while I start to release my works without a tablet and do more things with acrylic and oil… I hope that until the end of this year I already have some paintings =)

These are some “faces” that I drawn with my friend Marcelo Delamanha.
To make these, each one drawing a part of the face (for example: 1 eye, half of the nose, etc).
