Ana Raimundo of fricdementol is a freelance artist from Portugal who works with a variety of mediums. You will find screen prints on paper & wood, sachets, watercolor, acrylic, bags, postcards and even wearable art. Her blog, dropes de mentol is also a good place to visit to see more of her drawings and paintings. Ana's art seems to be telling a story, there is a playfulness and innocence to her characters that make them endearing and remind me of a time when magic was still a possibility. I want to grab one of these pieces off the screen and hand them to a child and send them off into the garden with pen and paper and see what happens as these drawings inspire a desire in one to explore, play and create.

Thanks for showcasing these charming works. I love the lavender bags.... I also wonder if the artist is drawing on any folk or native art for her subject references.
Thanks for sharing,
Wonderful Work I have not seen before,
love to see new ones!!!!
I do love her work--and it looks like folk-art references...whimsical and charming!
I love these works! This is the kind of creativity that can't be taught or acquired- an innately unique and honest visual voice. Great feature!

Beautiful work from a very talented artist! Thank you for sharing this with us! (-:
There's such charm and innocence to to Ana's work. You're so right about how her work inspires the desire to create, Paula. Great article!
Dear Paula, this article is a truly and giant honor for me. Thank you so much!
I think these are the best words and description of my work ever done! That makes me very happy :)
I really love to express nature and portraiture, mostly my work is based on native life and expressions, my art wouldn't make sense if it wasn't like that :)
I used to have this at my etsy profile:
"I was a tile painter in a factory for some years, mostly of Portuguese traditional folk tiles, which has a long history in the ceramic arts and I like it a lot. I think that gave me some eternal inspiration because, when I look at my works, I recognize a kind of tile panels and the subjects I represent in it as rural scenes mixed with modernity."
I'm very proud to make part of the Artisans Gallery Team!
my pleasure ana, it sounds as if you have many fans already, i hope this gives you more!

I'm very glad to discover this talent of illustrator, Ana's working is really expressive, and very personal at the the same time. I enjoy very much her representation of sailor between modernism and antiquated.
