When I was invited to give a lecture at @unochapeco last month, I had the INCREDIBLE honor of meeting this huge and bearded gent. If you know him, you know what I mean. If you don't, this is Vitor Severo Leães, game producer of #Toren, an incredibly poeti

Aw yeah --- getting my music projects back on track. Just couldn't be more excited! Soon you'll start to understand this crazy journey of mine... Everything has a purpose. @monteblancomusic #music #recording #experimental #groove #electronica #jazzymoods

FINALLY got the {right} drive for pursuing oil painting --- it has very little to do with expectations (mine or from others), and even less with following trends, or other painters works as motivation (but as inspiration). It's WAY more personal. This shi

Well, a 2D WIP for a change, right? This is where I'll always feel like home, it's my soul. This is a new attempt on my comic-esque approach/style - these will come more regularly... 2016 will be a comics year for me, soon you'll know more about it. #wo

Back into my 3D study piece, "The Blind Sorcerer". As much as this apparently sci-fi head doens't evoke "sorcerer" at first sight, this is EXACTLY the point - you'll see at the end. Bending genres is such a great creative exercise. Have a great weekend,

Em minha breve estadia em Chapecó, tive o inestimável prazer e honra de participar de uma incrível tarde na @oops_store , assinando cartas de Magic e curtindo com a galera. Um ULTRA obrigado ao pessoal da loja, vocês fizeram deste mero ilustrador um cada

O café da manhã no Hotel Lang Palace em Chapecó é simplesmente uma EXPLOSÃO GÁSTRICA de sabor, variedade e nutrição violenta do organismo. NÃO SOMOS MERECEDORES 😅😆😧😫😘 ☕🍰🍩🍫

WIP of my first 3D based illustration /// Sculpting the character before the painting itself is absolutelly addictive, makes the whole thing more deep, definetly adding more layers of inherent storytelling. #WIP #illustration #sculpture #digital #drawin

Sculpting the ideas I usually envision in 2D is opening a whole new level of perception in my mind. Let's see what happens from now on. #3D #sculpture #sculpting #modeling #head #experiment #ideation #exploration #art #digital #sarmento

Today's study --- a chinese folk, assimilated by some alien force. First shot at Keyshot (hah). Day One was the day to accept that I'm OFFICIALLY ADDICTED, and deeply engaged to 3D. Tons, TONS to study/grow/develop into the unknown, insane future. #zbrush
