“I guess my work sometimes goes trough elements, I mean, I make a painting based on an object or idea that I fancy at the moment, for example, today, I feel very attracted to water bottles, I have no specific reason, I just like the format and the colors and the idea of it, today I feel like it’s a good idea to paint a water bottle.
Maybe my spirit is attached to different things on different days.
A lot of days, I noticed, I feel very captivated to paint fruit trees, specially pear trees, I just think it would feel nice to paint that. It happens a lot. There is certainly an energy that pushes me into painting what I am painting, It isn’t one reason alone. Does this make sense?
What I made while in the Thirdbase, It doesn’t have one single reason, it’s a mixture of decisions based on things I am attracted to, or was.
Those paintings came from drawings I made during quarantine, so maybe they talk about the feelings I was getting while going through that weird time. Not that necessarily bad feelings, there were a lot of good feelings. And love. And Jumping.
