Conceição Sapateiro

"Sleeves rolled up, tail well seated and willing to learn"

 

It is with eyes set on this reality that Conceição Sapateiro decided to share what he knows with the youngest. The secret is simple: "Sleeves rolled up, well seated and willing to learn" and, with this method, he says he has taught a lot of people. "It is not rewarding in terms of money, but it gives comfort and satisfaction." It inspires her to be in a good mood and good company to make pieces with a message, "so that people can read". The main message, he stresses, "is joy, to be united". The old pitchers and roosters from Barcelos, "like this, different, with gel on the freak crest", are what he likes to do the most. On the other hand, "go retro!" These objects are unlucky. These, and other bizarre requests that have already been made to her and that she did not make out of fear of punishment: "A Jesus on the cross upside down and a St. Peter upside down. There is a limit in people's imagination!" .
