Rafael Murió é Artista Plástico. — Rafael Died is an artist.

The artist Rafael Murió has, in equal doses, talent and sympathy. Developing an impressionistic study, was characterized by its painting made with hands, in the vast majority of screen space and end aid of brushes and other painting tools. Works following basic themes: Flowers, Marine, Religious Painting, Sumi-ê, but always based on the colors. In flowers the artist reflects the strength of his work, in marine sense of soul and religious painting, the controversial exercise. Married, 2 children, with more than 800 paintings sold and around the world, Rafael Murió is adamant that only the “release” can bring “creativity”. He explains: “For me creativity is connected with the exercise. Working out continuously, without the worry of giving satisfaction on the dash or painting is the greatest satisfaction in life.” Knowing his works is to give yourself the opportunity to discover the talent, beauty, the technical and the miracle of the hands of Rafael Murió. – Liba Friedman (journalist)
