Secrets

The challenge from inspiremethursday this week is Secrets. The secrets in your art work.

My art work, watercolors or paintings, always have many layers. Normally, the paintings begann with a certain color and the end result is completely different from the original work.

This work, for instance, beganns with a blue underpainting, then I put over a layer of acrylic gesso, over that I scrap words, like "pain" and other words, thain I applied more paint layers. At last I spraied over it like a graffiti. You can not see the words, they are hidden on the layers of paint. But they are there. Some of my works have 10 or more layers of thinny paint coats.

Celebrating the feminine

The challenge from inspiremethursday is about the feminine.

Two yeas ago I made three works for an Award here in São Bernardo. It was about womens pain. I looked at old pictures from women and I could see there some strange sadness and suffering and I began to think why all there had this sad eyes, this faces without a smile.

Womens dont have a good life in the most parts of the world. In Afrika, South Amerika, India and other poor countries the life of womens are plenty of suffering. Suffering and blood. The birth is blood, the periode is blood, the whole women is blood. Blood is life, but it is dead too.

There is a lot of pain and I based my work on this thoughts.

Of course is Louise Bourgeois my favorite woman artist. And Nazaré Pacheco too. She is a brazilian artist abouth whom I want to post something this days.

I mean that we, sometimes, must think about that womans in this big world. That womans who has no chance to have a good life.

Es sind Vogelkäfige, mit einem Spiegel auf dem Boden, und jedes enthält ein altes Foto. Es sollten 12 davon geradelinieg an eine weisse Wand hängen.
