Miguel Augusto

It all starts from a source, which I can’t really explain where it come’s from, that guide me through a process of engagement in a flow, searching for perfection, not only in terms of aesthetics but, in functionality as well. I remember, that the white sheets of paper, pencils, brushes and colors, were my best “friends” since my childhood and I can’t see myself living without them”.
