ATELIER - CRISTIANO SHEPPARD CRUZ - Discreet and hidden in Rua do Compromisso nr.2 /Groundfloor, in the center of Faro. He is a old friend and painter, born in Mozambique. He use to say, "It was here where I found a warm place, similar to Africa". And about his Art,"I can't fit into any artistic orientation, I've been called expressionist, surrealist..." Like many painters...Even he travels once in a while for a few days, for more inspiration. It's worth knocking on the window and seeing if he's there. To know his work without commitment. A good conversation is certainly guaranteed.
