Stephan Doitschinoff




I've been exposed to several things relating to Brazil having worked and spent nearly nine years in New York. One of my closest friends Azu, a.k.a. Zuzuka Poderosa has not only tried to teach me to cook Moqueca, but has also exposed me to several cultural flavors of Brazil. I had an overdose of good taste one afternoon when I discovered her own signed copy of CALMA: The Art of Stephan Doitschinoff.

The book is AMAZING! Stephan's work seriously moves me for many reasons that can only be felt and not explained. I could easily get real cheesy right here, start blaming my passion on the fact that the placement of my Venus is in a water sign, complain that my rising is in Pisces and begin using words that will leave you with the wrong connotations. Instead, I will simply end with: I love his work so much that I would consider tattooing his art somewhere on my body.
