I love rooftops and this is one of my favourite. Not changing a thing in the urban architecture to honour the city, just balancing the colours to capture the mood.
Beyond the roofs, the silhouette of São Vicente de Fora reflects the glow of the sky. In the foreground, a lone palm tree frames the scene.
A fresh pink morning light spreads across the puzzle of red roofs and white walls. To me, Lisbon mornings are a harmony of warm terracotta and cool pastel tones.

In my opinion, oils or acrylics are the best for showing the colors and shapes of realistic landscapes. I start with a base of titanium white and build the painting step by step, much like assembling a puzzle.

The choice of brushes is crucial for me—I use sizes ranging from 50 for smoothing cloud textures to as small as 0/4 for painting intricate details like leaves. A high-quality linen canvas stretched on a wooden frame is essential for my work. While I don’t have a specific brand preference, I opt for expensive, durable materials for their longevity and quality.
