sketches in newspapers use of charcoal and black and white acrylic paint

PROPOSAL

“For me, painting is the sad and dark point of life. In it I try to express the deepest of the human being. While the upholstery is the happy part of life.”

Violeta Parra.

Faces reveal expression impossible to hide, our eyes are mirrors  of the soul, they are silent voice which wants to escape and I make dormant in my drawing . the observer uncovers your own hidden reality, at a glance, quiet and full of emotions that invites us to be aware that we share a common, destiny. those headaches are also ours, and that many times we can witness the death with the eyes open.

-. Development and objectives this week:

This week I followed with some sketches trying to resolve the shape of the distortion of the faces, specifically in the eyes because they have a great influence on the face emotions, began giving oval shapes of black and white tones. Both in the shape of the eye and in the iris trying to give contrast between black and white, to form an image of desolation, but the last sketch formed only a spot on the eye and the shape of the iris produced it with a thin line circular I think it produces more depth. This reminded me of Pablo Picasso in his distortion images,( but at the same time different by using more geometric tonalities and images in the faces that the artist used and I think I focused only on black and white and only place spots and not have a certain structure) https://www.christies.com/zmags?ZmagsPublishID=21f639e7

I will continue with the distortion in the nose and mouth but with spots and some basic details with a contrast colour to produce the impression of the mouth and nose. These changes will only be used in the middle of the face to continue in line with what the picture (poses and on the other hand the story behind each image.)

AMBER SECOND WEEK

SECOND WEEKthis week I’m thinking about working on the location of the faces and tones that I will use for these faces and start designing if I can place in a linear way, it seems a good idea to put them in line lines as seen in these portraits and cover your face with other type of material as it is an easy paper to break, for that I have been investigating some Latin American artists and I found interesting as Marco Antonio Jimenez Iriarte, who uses their faces with a background very different from the tonalities of the face, the only diferent it is the use of the material that is paper and in my case it is interlining. The first thing is that I must resolve are the tonalities and backgrounds of the faces  rand I think I will put them in group form.   Research https://goo.gl/images/Bs8CFH

test of colors on the faces.

102 cm X 71cm paper, acrylic paint,aging process of the paint with the following materials: burn umber +ivory black oil+ low odour tinners. 

My work this semester I focus on creating portraiture. I use painte and drowing techinique to fix the model gaze and try to perserve their dignity. Simultaneaously I make evidente the fragility of their being. The face can represent the human condition. My portraits position the gaze as space of contradiction and ambiguity. The portraits are subjects chose to have emotional, culture and political conflicts. The face work as a mirror that cab interrogate the viewer. In these portraits, I have invested in the power of the gaze. Finding intensity and value in the relationship between viewer and subject. I seek a reaction that create a force of impulse. For the observer to discover the inner, silen look, is to realize the we share a common destiny. A reflection on beauty as fragility with eyes open.

The work of the sketch and at the same time the experiment of the small bottles with their portraits inside an clearly, the same time was to prove the image scale and proportion, repeticion with an instalacion simultaneously, because the paper as a material flat. I do not aply colour, because I wanted to use natural light to give more dram and depth to the drawning in another type of environment that was not wall.

a series of images found in a magazine about Latin America and social problems and kidnappings that end with the lives of many children every day as a result of drugs and corruption.I wanted to put more color than resolution of the face’s image, to be able to deepen and make a simpler sketches within a range of colors, apply external materials such as the newspaper to be able to connect the news and daily life, and the brown color is a Contribution of coffee that produces especially in the first sketches an aged appearance very characteristic of the old photographs. Another type of material was used in my country by many artists who do not have so many resources to buy good quality paper. An approach for my own identity. I have many doubts about the color and the images I follow in the search.
