"
Não sabia bem o que era amor,
Até que ele entrou na sua vida.
É carinho, é respeito, é gargalhada não contida.
É amizade, apoio e sair do torpor.
Ver a vida com outra cor.
Mais rosa, talvez. Brilhante de certeza.
"Bem piroso e lamechas como o amor deve ser."
"
(EN)
"Didn't really know what love was,
Until he came into her life.
It's affection, it's respect, it's unrestrained laughter. It's friendship, support and getting out of the torpor.
See life in another colours.
More pink, perhaps. Brilliant for sure.
"Really corny and cheesy as love should be."

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Giclée?
"A true giclée print refers to an archival print made from an inkjet printer equipped with a highly permanent set of inks in a wide range of colors. Artists, galleries, and collectors seek out giclée prints because of their unmatched standard of digital reproduction, and archival longevity." - from Brooklyn Editions
My giclées are made in a printshop specialized in this work. They use 12 colours to print it, so the end result is closer to the original work. They combine mineral pigment-based paints with archival quality paper for longevity.
Aging estimates – based on laboratory tests – point to a resistance to fading and colour change of more than 200 years under ideal conditions (storage in the dark at 22.7ºC and 50% RH), and up to 86 years when exposed under glass.
Where are these made?
All made with love in Portugal.
How is it shipped?
Both prints and originals on paper are shipped inside a PLA (more eco-friendly) or OPP envelope* to protect them from humidity. They're also wrapped, and then cardboard is added for support/to avoid bending. Then it is shipped in a cardboard envelope.
*It's not ideal, but necessary, and I'm always on the lookout for more sustainable alternatives.
