my art creations from 2010
Sorry I never really get around to posting my art, its a lot more work than just posting pictures, I have to find the measurements, sometimes think up titles, describe and give explanations..you get the idea, I always keep delaying it...till now I have a bunch of non posted pieces, so they're all gonna have to go together. :) enjoy
"Reflejos de ausencia" (Absence reflections). May 2010. 147 x 172 cm, acrylics painting on canvas.
This is the biggest painting Ive ever done, such a challenge. When I was building the canvas I sat on top of it on the floor and was thrilled that it was so big. I love how mysterious this picture is, gives me the creeps. People stare at it and just dont get it which is why its fascinating. The big structure are mirrors reflecting the landscape.
"Nebulosa de mar" (Sea nebulose). April 2010. 100 x 130,5 cm acrylics painting on canvas. This too can give you the creeps, it has to be looked at at the right distance with the right lighting...then its incredible. PTL
"No more" Watercolor and pastel on 50 x 70 cm board.
the text says "the last golden leave is about to fall, and the last silver tear is about to be shed, and after that...no more"
Sculpture of a lamp. April 2010. This is my second sculpture pieces and I freekin love it... :) its huge and so heavy, I cant hold it, always have to get a couple guys to take it whenever I need to move it around. The making of is way to complicated to explain, but its so groovy to look at it in the dark, and the light it gives and the shadows it creates.
"Fragility" Novemver 2009
I love this.
It says so so much.
It kind of an experiment, and the making of is a secret cause its such a cool idea that if you kew how its done you'd go ahead and do it too, so Im keeping it a business secret. :)
"Stairs to Heaven" 50 x 70 cm acrylics painting on board.
The greatest thing about this painting is the story it has entangled to it. Mesmerizing, stare at it, decipher it.

summer summer

been a while I'd say!
The air is hectic here with Spain on the finals of the World cup for the first time ever. Would be swell if we win.
excitement
I'll throw in a few pics, and as for an update...
I finished freshman yr and have a few good months of vacation in my hands. I went for a week to the beach, then came back and did a course at the Prado museum on art conservation and um..now I'm painting. Have a big storage of blank canvases to use, and hopefully I can pull out an exhibition sometime this summer.
Ive started this great routine that wakes me up in the morning and keeps me energized for the day despite the summer lows. I get up super early and workout, then take a swim and then come back for breakfast, that wayI've already lived a whole day before everyone else gets up.
its all very useful
