José Cabita is the famous Capinha (bull dancer) off the island of São Jorge. Here he is posing in front of his painting in Manezinho. I used a foto by Jorge Blayer Gois as reference. Over the years Jorge made a whole series of spectacular images of José. The style of the painting is, what Rini calls, Stripeism, a sort of pointillism but then using brush strokes to accentuate the shape of the object in the painting.
