Geraldo Braga

I am Geraldo Braga from Brazil. As an artist, I am mostly self-taught, but have done some part-time course during the past seven years.
In my paintings I express the cross-cultural nuances, as well the everyday “snapshots” and scenes that give meaning to the cultures which surround me.
I generally work in oils and acrylics and the different lines, brushstrokes and the thickness of paint is the language I use to evoke the environment, the scene, the moment, and the complexity and contrast. Being a foreigner in South Africa gives me the advantage of painting with new eyes and unique experiences.
