Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Medium

Watercolor painting

Watercolor is a transparent water-based paint, as opposed to gouache, which is opaque but of identical composition.

The same word is used to designate watercolor painting and works painted with this technique.

Many artists have explored watercolor painting in their studies, projects and outdoor work, due to the small equipment footprint and quick execution of this technique.

Description
Watercolor painting representing the state of consciousness when observing or contemplating. Different artistic choices were made for this purpose. Nudity expresses that it is a naked eye that is in action. The emptiness of the room, an extension of the mind, reveals the break with the way we usually look at the world and the loss of the preconceptions that are there. Finally, the absence of an observed subject emphasizes what happens during contemplation, and not what results from it. Finally, light, a sign of wisdom, encompasses this young man because by preparing to contemplate, he invites him to enter.
