IN ANIMAL SPECIES, ALERT IS AN INBORN MECHANISM THAT IS ACTIVATED IMMEDIATELY IN CASE OF DANGER, TO ESCAPE FROM THE PREDATOR, IN THIS WORK THE JILGER PERCHED ON A BRANCH OFFERS US THAT VISION, TO BE ABLE TO ANTICIPATE THE ATTACK AND BE ABLE TO UIR, THE SIZE OF THE JILGERO IS EXPONENTIAL TO BE ABLE TO OFFER THE SPECTATOR THAT EXPRESSION THAT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO CAPTURE AT NATURAL SIZE.
AS IN AN ANIMAL SO SMALL WE CAN FIND SIMILAR COLORFUL ONES THAT LEAVE US AMAZED. THERE IS THE INSPIRATION OF THIS PICTURE. SUBMERGED IN THE CHROMATIC RANGE OF THE JILGUEROS WITH ITS PLUMAGE AND HARMONY THAT GIVES US WITH ITS TONES, A JOY AND ADMIRATION.
THE TECHNIQUE IS COMPLEX BECAUSE IN ORDER TO CRYSTALIZE THE INK MULTITUDE OF COLOR LAYERS ARE APPLIED, TO CREATE GLAZES AND TEXTURES IN THE PICMENTS, BEING VERY LABOROUS AND SLOW, TO PREVENT THE TONES FROM BLENDING AND OVERLAPPING BECAUSE THE DEGREE OF MOISTURE WILL THE INK MUST BE SUITABLE SO THAT THE LOWER LAYERS DO NOT MIX AND THUS BE ABLE TO MAKE THE COLORS DENSE, BRIGHT AND VIBRANT, GETTING A TEXTURE LIKE OIL. THE VISUAL EFFECT OF THE INK WHEN IT CRYSTALIZES IS ALMOST THREE-DIMENSIONAL, ACCENTUATING THE DEPTH AND VOLUMES WE GET A WINDOW EFFECT, WHICH LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN ENTER THE WORK. DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE WORK, IT MAY TAKE SEVERAL MONTHS TO FINISH IT, BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO RESPECT THE DRYING TIMES OF THE MENTOS.
THIS WORK IS BASED ON THE BASE MATERIALS, ACID-FREE VIRGIN CARDBOARD FOR PRESERVATION OF THE PICMENTS AND COLOR QUALITY. THE PICMENTS USED IN CHINESE INK, GOLD AND SILVER, FINAL SPRAY LACQUER FINISH TO PROTECT THE PAINTING OVER TIME.
