Portugal paints with different techniques:oil, acrylic, India ink, pastel, his work has a pictorial power, in the explosion of colors like the ceilings of churches and chapels of the Renaissance painters. We discover the same importance of the human body and portraits, the play of light, the influence of cities and merchants. But the artist brings his classical aesthetic culture into contact with the inventiveness of the Pop Art practiced by Roy Lichtenstein. The color palette leads the public’s perception to jubilation. Another way to reach Street Art: the entrance of a garage becomes an open door to emotion, beauty and poetry.
