That is the reason why, in his work, exists, almost always, a kind of veil or aura that embraces everything, unites and transforms it in a whole. In fact, for the painter from Cascais, the singular figure simply does not exist. Both the trace and inspiration work for him, drawing the lines, sowing the colours, shading the composition. To let the lines flow is a danger that does not scare the author, for he knows how to master them.
Soares belongs to the group of painters that write visual poetry.
The lines he draws are, in fact, poems, where the human figure is always emphasized and contemplated in all the possible angles. His passion for the human face, especially the feminine one, reveals a lunar passion. The Portuguese painter tends to represent the feminine face in profile, with thin nose and round visage, in the form of the moon, in crescent or in wane, assuming, at times, also the form of the full moon. The other signal that distinguishes his work is the emphasise given to the expression. The beautiful and static faces do not atract him or atract him very little.
