Brazilian Printmaker R O S A N A P A U L I N O



 My friend Rosana who is based in Sau Paulo, Brazil has some great work on her blog which I originally set up for her,  to encourage her to get her lovely work on line.
 I like how she uses media and the kinds of ideas and emotions she explores in her work.

Check out her blog  I have put it through Google's website blog translator so language is not a barrier.  For those of you who speak Portuguese,  her direct blog address is http://rosanapaulino.blogspot.com
Rosana did a residency at London print Workshop (as it was then called) sometime around 1997 -9, which is how we became friends.

Rosana Paulino an interesting artist friend (Brasil)



A chap wrote a comment about one of my artworks on my Flickr album. I had no idea what he was on about - so I Flickr-mailed him. Then he responded and I was just about to look up his original comment when I came across another one regarding a different artwork of mine.

The poster of this comment had mentioned that one of my pieces (House Angel) reminded her of Christian Boltanski.
And as I responded to this, talking and thinking about how my 'state of mind' had been, back then (this was around 1996-97) I happened to mention my good friend Rosana Paulino, who I met through London Print Studio.
She is a lovely person and makes beautiful heartfelt artwork using a whole range of materials and techniques. Rosana who is based in Sao Paulo speaks English and I just wish my Portuguese was as good as hers English, so that I could understand more of what the website says HOWEVER the artworks her artworks and images speak for themselves.
