     Paulo de Lira was born in the city of sapé, Paraíba.
     The optimistc
way of facing life and the artistic work he does are of so great importance that one cannot exist without the other.
     His work expresses
the colourful images of the boats that fill the days of the ones living in Angra; and at the same time with the refinement of his line drawing and harmony we realize through his work sensibility of the theme.
     With each new work, de Lira makes us believe that in all days the best can be seen.
     Because of the esthetic and creativeness that make the beauty of his work, we can define it as refined art.

From Osvaldo Meligeni
July, 26th 1998

     The pictures paint the sea, the things related to it, some faces and objects.
     The artist who lived his whole life at the seaside kept all these images in mind and transfers them to the works with fragile line drawings, in a rare sensibility
.
