The Story Starts with a Loyal Customer

It all started a few years ago, when Marcela, a loyal customer who had already ordered two paintings previously, got in touch again. She had already trusted me to immortalize the portraits of her son and niece on canvas. This confidence in my work filled my heart with joy, and I was eager to see what the future held for our next collaboration.

The New Order: Capturing a Unique Moment

This time, Marcela sent me a photograph that captured my heart immediately. It was a touching image of her with her son, who was growing up fast. In the photo, the joy and love between mother and son were palpable. Marcela wanted to immortalize this memory in a painting, and I felt a responsibility to capture this special emotion in my art.

Draft Preparation and Approval

Before starting the painting, I sent Marcela some preliminary sketches. I believe that collaboration with the client is essential to ensure that the final work is truly personalized and meaningful. Marcela approved one of the sketches I had created, and it was from that point that the magic really began.

The Creative Process in Detail

I used an 80x80cm canvas, which offered enough space to capture all the details of the original photograph. I chose acrylic and spray paint because of their versatility and ability to create unique textures and stunning visual effects.

The 25 Day Journey

The process of creating the personalized painting for Marcela took 25 days to complete. This included preparing the canvas, applying layers of paint, creating textures, and fine detailing. Although this period may seem long, it is a common practice in my work as I believe that quality and attention to detail are essential to creating a truly unique work of art.

The Meaning Behind the Painting

Creating this painting for Marcela was more than an artistic project for me; it was an emotional journey. I was capturing not only the physical resemblance but also the deep emotional connection between mother and son. Each brushstroke and jet of spray was intended to express the love and joy present in that photograph.

Gratitude to Marcela

I would like to take this moment to express my sincere gratitude to Marcela. She trusted me to create a work of art that represented one of the most precious moments in her life. The privilege of being part of preserving this memory is something I hold in my heart with great honor. High Portrait is an art form that transcends time and culture, and my hope is that each portrait I create tells a unique story , convey emotions and, ultimately, reveal the beauty of the uniqueness of each individual portrayed. It is a journey that I continue to perfect, with the aim of bringing my own distinctive style to my works and, thus, offering a glimpse of the richness of the human soul through painting.

Conclusion

Creating this custom painting for Marcela was an exciting and rewarding journey. Every brushstroke, every layer of paint and every spray jet was made with care and attention to detail, with the aim of immortalizing the love and connection between mother and child. I hope this story touched your hearts as it touched mine as I shared it.

The other thing that made this experience even more special was the fact that Marcela was incredibly happy with how the custom paint job turned out. She not only expressed her gratitude but also shared a photo of the painting hanging on the wall of her home. Seeing the work in its natural environment, being part of his family's everyday life, brought indescribable joy to my heart. It's a feeling that goes far beyond words - it's a deep and rewarding bond that art creates between the artist and his client. I really love this connection that art gives us!
