i started working on this series preparing for the application to the academy of arts in helsinki, sadly i didn't get accepted but i hope you enjoy them... it consists of 5 paintings (one of them is missing but hopefully i will have an image soon to publish {santi i need the pic ;) } ) it is focused on images of persons working on the corners of bogotá. people cleaning car windows or selling fruits and other micellaneous things. the fifth painting is a big long horizontal image of a street-light on a red background. 2 of the paintings are digital prints on a special canvas and oil painted. this way i took the use of photo one step further by just not only having the "original image" added to the painting but now having the print of the photo as an integral part of the painting.
