"Bossa Nova desafinada" is a series of paintings of a nostalgic memory of Brasil that inevitably happened during quarantine. The lines are driven by music, and the colours are distant memories of all live Bossa. Every painting is a homage to a song or artist.

Jobim wrote both the English and Portuguese lyrics of "Águas de Março".
The lyrics, originally written in Portuguese, do not tell a story, but rather present a series of images that form a collage; The inspiration for "Águas de Março" came from Rio de Janeiro's rainiest month. March is typically marked by sudden storms with heavy rains and strong winds that cause flooding in many places around the city. The lyrics and the music have a constant downward progression much like the water torrent from those rains flowing in the gutters, which typically would carry sticks, stones, bits of glass, and almost everything and anything.
