THE FIRST FLGHT AND THE FULL STORY AND PROCESS.

This painting was inspired during my trip to Puerto Vallarta where I found a newborn butterfly getting ready for the first flight, I took her with me and leave her on hibiscus flowers just to give her time to spread her wings and take energy enough to fly.
After a while the butterfly flew towards the sea.
This painting represents the new beginning, the power that we have to embrace life and spread our wings and follow our way even if we can’t know for sure the road or what is ahead of us, that’s why the being has the eyes covered, as a representation of the faith within us.

HOW IT WAS TO MAKE THIS PIECE...

 

Ok, these picture were taken during July when I started this new sketch. It was inspired during my summer trip to Puerto Vallarta, but this canvas has been waiting for me all this time, honestly I don’t know why I have not worked with it, maybe the colors feels very cold and I just have been longing for warmth. This is more like summer painting but also I remember pastel skies during winter, beautiful pinks and lilacs shining with the sunsets or dawns. I think is time to focus again and paint through feelings from warm to cold and cold to warm, like if I were knitting a blanket with two different yarns. 🦋 🧶 🎨.

Behind the scenes and behind the brushes. 🎨.

I can't believe I'm still on this piece! It had never taken me so long to finish a painting, if it was not for lack of desire it was for lack of inspiration, or lack of time. My purpose is to finish it this month because I want to start 2022 with new projects, I love this painting and with everything that is added now because it contains more meaning, I am still with the background layers but I am painting in disorder, sometimes by colors, by space or by dimensions. I'm excited to know that I'm getting closer to seeing it finished. 😀🎨👩🏻‍🎨.
