Loneliness is a lack, it is the lack of company, human or animal, I have been alone without feeling that way but I have felt alone being so accompanied, it is a remembrance of the memory of my own loneliness, I captured it in this painting so that it could be exorcised in I exorcised my mind with cold colors, although it doesn't look cold or warm, just calm, how my loneliness feels right now.
Soledad es una carencia, es la carencia de compa帽铆a, humana o animal, he estado sola sin sentirme as铆 pero me he sentido sola estando tan acompa帽ada, es una remembranza el recuerdo de mi propia soledad, la plasm茅 en esta pintura para que fuese exorcizada en mi mente, la exorcic茅 con colores fr铆os, aunque no se vea ni fr铆a, ni c谩lida, solo tranquila, como se siente mi soledad en estos momentos.
Nothing has been as simple as making this sketch, it was clear to me that I wanted it to be like a floating cat, with relaxing color tones, at this point in my life I don't feel any conflict with loneliness, I like it, I feel pleased when Living in it, sometimes lacking company, I wanted the cat to transmit that placidity, that the colors give you a feeling of complacency, tranquility.
Nada ha sido tan sencillo como hacer este boceto, tenia claro que quer铆a que fuese un gato como flotando, con tonos de colores que fuesen relajantes, en este punto de mi vida no siento conflicto alguno con la soledad, me agrada, me siento complacida al habitar en ella, de a veces de carecer de compa帽铆a, quer铆a el gato transmitiera esa placidez, que los colores te diesen una sensaci贸n de complacencia, tranquilidad.
The funny thing about this painting was how I did it, I was suffering from a severe fever, my eyes were burning but I know myself well enough to know that I would not finish the painting unless I did it at that very moment, I had the determination to continue painting , to continue mixing colors, it was relaxing to see how the blank spaces were filled one by one, how everything was shaping the composition, it relaxes me to think about how nice it was to do the whole process of this painting.
Lo gracioso de esta pintura fue como la realice, estaba sufriendo una severa fiebre, me ard铆an los ojos pero me conozco lo suficiente como para saber que yo no terminar铆a la pintura a menos que lo hiciese en ese mismo momento, tuve la determinaci贸n de seguir pintando, de seguir mezclando colores, fue relajante ver como se rellenaba uno a uno los espacios en blanco, como todo iba dando forma a la composici贸n, me relaja pensar en lo lindo que fue hacer todo el proceso de esta pintura.
When I felt satisfied with the background, I went for the cat, painting it white so that the colors with which I would shape it would be more intense, a difference would be seen, I wanted it to be a corrugated texture, a texture different from the smooth one which naturally gives the paper.
Cuando me sent铆 satisfecha con el fondo, fui a por el gato, pint谩ndolo de blanco para que los clores con los que le dar铆a forma fuesen m谩s intensos, se viese una diferencia, quer铆a que fuese una textura corrugada, una textura distinta a la lisa que da naturalmente el papel.
After giving color to the cat, it became my favorite drawing/painting, with its sweet colors, with that feeling of placidity, whatever I imagined in my head, I had made it come true, that day I went to bed with great tranquility in my heart, he was happy with the result, with what he had achieved; I hope you are too with this post.
Luego de darle color al gato, se convirti贸 mi dibujo/pintura preferida, con sus colores tan dulces, con esa sensaci贸n de placidez, lo que imagine en mi cabeza, lo hab铆a hecho realidad, ese d铆a me acost茅 con mucha tranquilidad en mi coraz贸n, estaba feliz del resultado, de lo que hab铆a logrado; espero que ustedes tambi茅n lo est茅n con este post.
