This Collector’s Edition offers a rare glimpse into de Sousa’s creative process, featuring selections from his sketchbooks spanning 2020 to 2025. These pages reveal the early stages of ideas, thoughts, and drawings that later evolved into finished works of art. Through this intimate visual journey, readers can trace the influence of artists such as Lucian Freud—evident in de Sousa’s expressive brushwork—and Paula Rego, reflected in the psychological tension of his compositions. His distinctive style often merges complex backgrounds with the “bleeding” of water and charcoal, or geometric motifs reminiscent of vintage wallpaper. Fantastical elements—such as antiques and animals—frequently accompany his subjects, rendered in the precise and unmistakable style that defines his work.
