Décia Azevedo

I'm a self-taught artist living on madeira island from Portugal.

I use art as an antidote and vehicle to express myself and my emotions in a way that words can't explain.

Expressing on monochromatic oil paintings with colors on the same time.

My artworks reside in visual emotions that captivate the essence of human race.

Uniting monochrome portraits with nature and all the color it presents.

The monochromatic colors represents more than what we see.

Black, white and gray it’s not as colorful as we would like to be.

But what if the issue is not life itself but the way we look at it?!

What if the ashes are the complex reflection of our own thinking and acting?!

Black it’s the fusion of all colors, so maybe our universe is black and white because

we are too limited to see the colors.
