In 2018 we adopted cat called Charlie, things slowly got out of control after that....astmag

I think cats are pretty interesting. I have known quite a few and they are usually good company. Metal Magazine

I try to make it into a new creation that somehow still reminds you of the original image. Every work takes a different amount of time....I think the time it takes is not important. How you cut the paper is more important. Vogue Portugal

I want you to look at yourself in my mirror, see that everything is there and nothing is 100% what you expect or want. It is a ecosystem in flux, evolving and growing. To exist in a space between ugliness and beauty but to always be attractive to the eye, that is what I want. astmag

To appreciate the differences and similarities is to understand better your place in the world. Vogue Portugal

Eyeballs are good, if someone sees my work I am happy to inspire a smile or an independent thought astmag

When I begin working, I have printed a few copies of something to play with, I cut the essential areas, and start moving them around on a panel, trying to find that place half way between the image in my head and the image that makes itself in front of me....Our Culture

I love strange things, surrealism in general....Vogue Portugal

When I was young the art prints my parents displayed around the house were a big inspiration for me. I wanted to make beautiful things that were shocking, even frightening. I used to make bizarre sculptures, and I made funny little chic monsters in my sketchbook out of collage, quickly this became my focus. Vogue Portugal

I really love the bizarre grotesque work Bosch, Arcimboldo.. Something dark, flowery and beautiful....Vogue Portugal

The artist played too much of doodle jump before making the first one.

Simo and Mickey gonna give me nightmares tonight. Nibbles is def my favorite.

[–] quinacridone@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

Simo is definitely a weird one!

My faves are Vlad (who looks like he's seen some shit), Fluffy (sleep paralysis demon vibes), Hubble (a big goofy floof) and Ophelia (who's just in the process of teleporting in)

....sweet dreams!
