Y hacer falta que estar.
Y no significar nada."
Card Description: For my Loteria card I wanted to share my thoughts on how I think love is one of the strongest feelings you could have and how sometimes it hurts you more then it helps you I want to make people see how they can be hurting a person they think they are helping. I choose love or El Amor as a subject matter because to me that’s something that is something very beautiful and important in someone’s life. My piece contains of 3 main colors brown, pink and red the brown stands for the color of the girls skin holding her very broken and damaged heart. The red is the heart and all the blood that is coming out of her heart and finally the pink in the background represents how pink covers up how she really feels because in our minds pink can never be a color the represents a negative thought of feeling. For me personally, this card represents a lost and broken soul I say soul because anyone can feel pain that love gives sometimes it’s the love u give but can’t receive back or the love you carve but can’t get. I want my audience to see and feel my painting to know that its okay to feel the way they feel I want them to know that they are not alone I want them to feel whatever wave of emotion they get by seeing the painting and let the emotion happen to not hide it.
