Contigo a la Distancia
(With you in the Distance)

Como yo te ame (How I loved you)

Canvas, Acrylic

The painting shows a couple dancing while people watch from the background. The theme is how music is a portal to connect people in a more intimate and passionate way. The artist was inspired in bolero music and Latin American dancing like tango. The color are warmer and darker which represent the passion. The painting has a lot of imperfections showing that love is never perfect and appreciating does mistakes which makes the couple stronger. The title of the painting "Contigo a la Distancia" is a ballad written by the cuban songwriter César Portillo de la luz and popularized by Mexican singer Luis Miguel. At the time the song was written, virtual communication was barely possible so the song is referring more to a spiritual connection which is clearly shown even miles aways, which the artist depicted in this painting.

“Como ye te ame” is a painting of a woman staring at a couple dance. The theme is that seeing other people do an action can bring you to another world. This is reflected in the title of the painting which is another famous ballad written by Mexican musician Armando Manzanero. She is remembering how she once loved someone deeply. This is displayed on both color of the dresses, the one looking she is waring a cooler color dress while the one dancing is wearing a more warmer color which is related to love.
