Hi! It`s a pleasure to meet you here, my name is Matheus Almeida. I`m a self-taught artist in love for the chinese culture and thought. I use, as my work base, linen and paper. I am influenced by a technic called Xiěyì 写意 known as handsfree art. According to the tradicional chinese painting, this technic is characterized for vivid expression; furthermore, it is considered half-abstract art once it suggests the picture avoiding the presence of details.
“The true painting does not reveal the art, even less something aesthetic, its a way to be”
Shí Tāo 石涛 (poet and painter of landscapes, 1642-1707).
