Description This is an oil painting I did last november. I do like to paint with oils, I love the smell and the feel of it. It reminds me of something I can´t really explain, but that means a lot to me. Something to do with the time when I started to paint.

This painting depicts the road to a place called Serra da Cantareira. My parents have a house there and I went to this place during my whole childhood. The house has been abandoned by my parents for many years, and now I started to go there, to fix everything up and maybe live there. It´s only an hour from the city but there is a lot of nature there, the last time I went there (a couple of days ago) I stayed for a week and had a great time. I even saw a group of monkeys.. I´m also starting to plant some vegetables. Things are really looking good!

I really like the pale greens and the very strong and lively brushwork

i like the painting! especially in combination with the story i hope you make the house a nice place to live. and wow, a group of monkeys (this is what i like too about deviantArt, because: you won't stumble upon those in the country i live in
i'm not sure yet whether i like your style very much, or that i'm in the long run a bit dizzy with the unfocused vagueness of it: kind of makes me want to rub my eyes and try to look again
yes. well. but i do think i like the painting

What a soft painting. The brush strokes make it have a certain flow and rythm to it.
Very nice work.
