Art has given me to be more time with my foot on the hearth, in fact I fall down less than before, because I connected with the sensible worlds of colors, nature, and the most beautiful thing is that these become part of my contemplation time and I can bring this and paint this .....!
I love the effects of my painting when from each one, there is always special and different for me, I can talk between the spectator/viewer and me, through my art. This is just my goal ..!
I think Art is a special tool not also that humanity provide us, but yes 'Art' can built changes on humanity.
Art we can think from many points of view , but here I’d to take 2 mains points. 1 - Art as vehicle, motors of transformations of instincts, impulse, on something more sublime - modifying. From this perspective Art promote internal transformations for given life to every works.
The Artist has to stand suffering, insecurity to lead with the white paper, something that they need to across the viewer..
This time of tolerance of uncertainty holds the impulse of creativity and makes big transformations on the artist mind and it is the same in every person that wants to face a creative or inventive process, but at the same time needs to sort out their emotions and pain before they can translate this and allow, or make any attempt to allow and translate these emotions as part of the process of creativity onto their paper.
On the other hand, a spectator can receive this work and this touch sensitivity, thoughts, sensations, interpretations and interpret it for themselves, in their own ways.
This is why each of my work is and is no longer by the me , but both created and new space between me and audience.
I started painting Watercolors 13 years ago, I meet it by accident.
It not so much by my own choice.. .. I was coming from ink painting.
From the first I crushed in love, it was a play, I even said .........that is seems also an religious experience, because we have to concentrate, to think a lot, paint fast, but for me is the techniques that more challenging; many people consider Watercolour has very complicated techniques.
Yes, it implies a play with same rules, but even an undesirable stain could be a possibility to sort smartly the problem.
Modern watercolors, moderns artists take the watercolor as challenging to grow up every day. Especially for me as I am coming from a sciences field, especially mental health.
During much time I am floating on the ideas world..running life as thinker .. walking by life in this world.
