Antonio Poteiro was born in Santa Cristina, Portugal, and moved to Brazil as a young boy. In Brazil he worked as a potter, where he earned the name “Poteiro,” meaning “potter.” He transitioned from potter to ceramic artist and eventually to painter, at the advice of Siron Franco, a local artist. Poteiro has said that he sculpts and paints images from his imagination, his dreams, and the Bible. His art shows an intelligent use of color and repetition.
