“Inside this small room in Sete Cidades, I built the place where my ideas finally learn to breathe. It’s nothing complicated — just a big wooden table worn by years of use, windows that gathers every mood of the crater, and walls filled with dozens of small objects that have grown with me, year after year.

This is where I spend most of my rainy and foggy days: drawing, painting, testing colors, letting things unfold at their own rhythm. The studio holds the silence I need, the light I trust, and the kind of daily mess that only happens when a space is truly lived in. Everything here has a purpose, even if it’s just to remind me why I keep creating.

On certain days, I open the doors to anyone passing through Sete Cidades. Travelers, residents, visitors and Carioca Breezy guests step into this room and discover a bit of my process, my paintings, and the atmosphere that shapes them. These open-door moments feel like a small act of community and hospitality — a way of showing how the place looks from the eyes of someone who calls it home.

The Art Studio is also where I pause, feel, and reconnect with this crater and island I live in. It’s my personal atelier — simple, grounded, and open to those who arrive with curiosity and time.”
