Art and culture provide ways to tell the stories that enrich our lives. Humans are naturally creative, in so many different ways, and by nurturing this we can remain innovative and imaginative.

As a creative type, I don’t like to restrict my artistic endeavours to any one medium, and (sometimes going by GClaws) have been prolific in both physical and digital art. I have exhibited in galleries and museums, and continue to take commissions. Much of the work is inspired by a great love, fascination and wonderment with our living world. Never happier than when grubbing around in mud and nature, I still draw my influences widely, including sub-cultures, urban rhythms and interesting intersections that catch the eye.

I write irregularly, normally every few weeks or so, on Medium so follow me there to be notified when I do. To support my work as an artist and writer, visit — https://www.patreon.com/Postcards_from_Portugal or buy me a coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/GClaws. I share more of my life in the beautiful mountains of central Portugal, where I’m surrounded by nature and all the joys that brings.
