This stunning portrait by Mercedes Gordo features a female figure that seems to float in a sky adorned with golden stars. The combination of blue and golden hues creates an enchanting visual contrast, evoking feelings of calm and femininity. The textures of the dress, meticulously worked with spatulas, together with the starry atmosphere, offer a sublime representation of the beauty and elegance of the figure portrayed. Each detail adds depth and an evocative touch that invites the viewer to reflect on the connection between fashion, femininity and ethereal dreams.
Art has always been my calling. I believe there is something deeply transformative in creating, in shaping matter and turning it into a personal and magical space, channeling a unique sensitivity to observe and interpret the world. Painting is my language; a way to communicate and, at the same time, positively isolate myself from everyday reality. Through each brushstroke, I find a way to express emotions and feelings that I could hardly communicate otherwise. Painting allows me to reveal the most sensitive facet of my being and share my own vision of the world. Thus, my works seek to convey not only emotions, but also messages and reflections on our existence, social challenges and life itself. My artistic career began in realism, focused on landscapes and still lifes. Over time, I have explored more contemporary techniques and styles, creating a fusion between the classic and the modern. In each work, my goal is for the design, color and texture to awaken deep emotions in the viewer and open a space for reflection.
