Über mich

My name is Ana Raimundo, i'm raised and born in the sunny Portugal.

I have a fine arts degree, so in the past years i was able to contact and work with many mediums like ceramic, sculpture, textile arts, painting tiles, glass, photography, print techniques (linoleum, aqua-tint, screen print...) etc...

I was a tile painter in a factory for some years, mostly of Portuguese traditional folk tiles, which has a long history in the ceramic arts and i like it a lot. I think that gave me some eternal inspiration because, when i look at my works, i recognize a kind of tile panels and the subjects i represent in it.

Since I'm human i try to balance the pollution i make, so i recycle, i plant indigenous trees and do other stuff ! I have no car so i ride a bike!

I'm fascinated by people's portraits and expressions. Portraiture and nature are my obsessions.

fric_de_mentol is my job!
