An important work of Venegas still remaining in the original location is the altarpiece of the Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Luz (Church of Our Lady of Light) in Lisbon. The paintings are placed in a large wooden altarpiece in Mannerist style, in the chancel of the church built by Jérôme de Rouen between 1575 and 1590. Of the eight screens of the altarpiece, made around 1590, four are signed by the artist, including the central screen, dedicated to Apparition of Our Lady of Light. The other four paintings are by Diogo Teixeira, the usual partner of Venegas. The fact that he signed his works is a sign of his statement as a solo artist, something typical of Mannerism but relatively uncommon in Portugal at the time.
Another important work of Venegas is the illusionist painting the wooden ceiling of the Igreja de São Roque in Lisbon, a large composition that combines classic architecture with many sham medallions with religious images. The work, carried out between 1584 and 1590, was completed by the painter Amaro do Vale, author of medallions. Other works include a work for the St. Mary Magdalene Church of Grace in Lisbon.
Venegas died in Lisbon, in 1594, showered with honors.
