About Fernando Gomes, portrait painter in Macau
Arkorigin
Trained in my 30s under renowned Angolan artist Dilia Fraguito Samarth, I pivoted to art after a leg injury halted my veterinary studies in my 40s.
Now, I dedicate myself to impressionistic portraiture, inspired by the mastery of light and humanity seen in John Singer Sargent and Leonardo da Vinci.
While landscapes are a secondary passion, my focus is on capturing the fleeting essence of individuals through bold, emotive brushwork—a testament to resilience and reinvention.
*My painting is a byproduct of a cursed painter.
This is a brief story that i made long ago, and it outlines how and why everything began.
