Wedding Gown

Wedding Gown, pastel, 30x40 cm. Did you expect to see a bride? Why? Who sews the wedding gown? How do you think the seamstress feels? Why? "Vestido de novia", pastel. Esperabas ver una novia? Porque? Quien esta cosiendo el vestido de novia? Como crees que se siente la costurera? Porque?

Paintings tell a story. You put it together in your head. You, the viewer, complete the story. There are as many possible endings as there are viewers. Painting is not only the technical part, of rubbing your pastel stick against the paper, or pushing paint with your brush on the canvas, painting is much more than that. Painting is telling a piece of a story, painting is bearing a small piece of your heart on the paper or canvas, and letting others see it, peak at it, guess the ending, feel the honesty of your emotion and find beauty in it.
Una pintura cuenta una historia. Armas la pintura en tu cabeza. Tu, el que ve la pintura, completas la historia. Hay tantos finales posibles como personas que la miran. Pintar no es solamente la parte tecnica, refregar tu pastel contra el papel, o empujar tu pintura con el pincel sobre la tela, pintar es mucho mas que eso. Pintar es contar un pedazo de una historia, pintar es descubrir un pequeno pedazo de tu corazon sobre la tela o el papel, y dejar que otros lo vean, le echen una ojeada, adivinen el final, sientan la honestidad de tu emocion, y encuentren su belleza.
