Lisbon
The color yellow holds a certain tyranny in this city. The trams during the day, the street lamps at night, the shabby buildings illuminated by the sun, and even the creamy heart of the famed pasteis de nata—all are yellow.
Yellow is, of course, a primary color. It’s not a mixture of others. However, it’s hard to say the same for Lisbon yellow. Lisbon yellow is a mixture of what we all feel at least once in a lifetime.
It’s the feeling on those dreary days when the sun somehow finds a way through the clouds to warm our faces. It’s the ache of missing someone, caught between the longing to reach out and the silence of holding back. It’s the deep yearning for a distant, golden moment. It’s the quiet joy of wine lifting a perfect bite into something sublime. It’s the breezy freshness of clean laundry swaying on sunlit balconies.
It’s the excitement of taking the first steps in a new city, the inward rush on a street leading to the sea, the urge to reach the seaside as quickly as possible. It’s the weight of unanswered questions as your head rests against a tram window. It’s hoping someone you’re meeting for the first time will share your spirit. Together, these emotions, layered and luminous, constitute Lisbon yellow.

Made To Order
My fine art prints each take approximately one week to print (and frame if applicable). Once shipped, you’ll receive a tracking number so that you can keep up to date. Each piece is custom printed, so I’m unable to accept returns. All cancellations and order changes must be made within 24 hours of the original purchase. Let me know if you would like to cancel your order as soon as possible. If your print doesn't arrive in perfect condition, please reach out to me without delay.
What is a Fine Art Print?
The term "fine art print" refers to archival pigment giclée prints, which differ from c-type prints in several ways. Giclée prints are created using high-quality pigment-based inks and acid-free fine art paper, without involving light-sensitive materials or chemical processes. Instead, they are produced using a high-resolution, large-format printer to ensure exceptional quality.
This method and choice of materials make giclée prints remarkably fade-resistant and durable. Unlike traditional prints, these images won’t yellow, crack, or degrade over time. Because of their longevity, this printing method is highly valued by museums and galleries for preserving artwork for decades. Archival pigment printing can also achieve the glossy, luster, or metallic finishes typical of c-type prints while offering a broader range of materials, including true matte, watercolor papers, and canvas.
