Description
The last of my series on Violeta Parra, a tribute to Violeta, the visual artista, the embroideress, the painter and the ceramist.
Violeta becomes the first Latin American woman artist who expose individually at the Louvre
◾In her paintings and burlaps employs a huge number of colors, each saying a feeling. On an occasion she explained:.. "Things are simply, I dont know to design, I invent everything and everyone can do it. I dont know to draw and I dont do any drawings, before starting my tapestries, but I am seeing little by little, which I should put. I am filling the spaces in my tapestries. And with my paintings: they are all in my head like my songs.
When I feel that there is a sensitive person or a feeling that is born to see what I do, I stay quiet. Just doing something that I can put emotion. Every work is unique to me. Sometimes I have the color of my name or the Green, the color of joy, and it costs me more to use than any other color, or red if I am angry and I denounce. I always use as a basis the Araucan colors: yellow, black, purple, red and pink of the copihue ".

Your painting is singing to my soul: "Gracias a la vida que me a dado tanto, me dio dos luceros, con ellos distingo risas y quebranto....

Madalena, your portraiture is unrivaled...so original, fascinating, moving, and beautiful created with your unique style. I wish I had a book full of your art that I might page through and pour over. I would never get tired of enjoying and admiring your art. This is another brilliant portrait. A beautiful, thoughtful tribute! L/F
