Very good morning friends of Hive, grateful for greeting you today, from Cumaná the painter Ramaco, presents you a publication that pays tribute to a part of the cultural heritage of Venezuela such as:

Today's painting is titled:

The dancing devils of yare.

MY MATERIALS.

The materials I used on this occasion were: watercolor, white acrylic, my No. 4 watercolor brushes; 2; and 001 to make the details, on FABRIANO cardboard. Panasonic photographic camera, LUMIX FZ47 brand, Adobe Photoshop digitization program, for digital modifications and Power Point, to convert images to jpg format.

STEP BY STEP PROCESS.

Friend spectator, curator and faithful follower, this new artistic publication is born from the memory of one of the many walks to the town of San Francisco de Yare (Miranda state), where every year a religious holiday on Thursday the Corpus Christi, is a very joyful festival where the little devils dance to the sound of the drum, this festival brings many parishioners, who celebrate the triumph of good over evil, the dance of these parishioners is very picturesque, which is part of the cultural heritage recognized at a regional, national and international level, to which I want to pay tribute, with an allusive illustration, which I made in the following way:

THE BEGINNING.

Start with magenta red spots, made with a No. 4 brush, on the horizontal part as shown in the slide.

The spots that are transformed were made with a brush No. 2, with shapes that will give rise to the dancers, since the dancing poses are distinguished in their shapes.

Adding more magenta red dancer poses.

It's time to do the details with my favorite fine tip brush No. 001.

- Pay attention!, and you will be aware of every detail.

Look closely, the masks of the dancing devils of Corpus Christi are here, with their maracas, their crosses, espadrilles on the ground, now what's missing is to give them a little more color.

Beginning to give more colorful details and attaching pennants with crosses for the dancers, the maracas decorated with the national tricolor of Venezuela.

Adding more color to the festivity.

All the artistic work that has been presented has given rise to the illustrated religious festival, titled:

The dancing devils of yare.

Friends of Hive, I hope you liked this memory of the "DANCING DEVILS OF YARE"; that always amazed me in my youth, I hope they have the opportunity to enjoy those parties, as much as I enjoyed them at the time, since it is surprising to watch them dance, especially at night it is a spectacle to the sound of percussion, and the organization of These dancers are a tradition and responsibility that begins at an early age, that is, from a child to an old man, transforming over time into living heritage of the state.

Thank you very much for your kind attention.

A hug, I love you very much.
