An artist in every tone!🎨🎇💗

[unuma]

Greetings, friends of this incredible community; once again I share with you a work that I hope you like. Today, more than showing you a series of color and black and white photos, I am driven by the love for art, and showing it from this dynamic makes these sculptures show their highest value, and their large dimensions only show greatness and absolute humanism. I hope you can appreciate each giant stroke, and get lost among their great lengths, and see how incredible it looks in color, and how majestic it becomes in black and white.

Fernando Botero is a Colombian artist, consecrated in art and recognized worldwide. His works are in the main squares of the world. He lived in his hometown, his beloved Medellin. Although he spent much of his life outside, he always showed his great love for his city; so much was his feeling for it. The painting he painted with great pain, “Pedrito a caballo," a painting about his son, who died at the age of 4 in a tragic accident; that painting he did not keep; he gave it as a gift to the Museum of Antioquia, so he considered it an act of love and courage.

This artist integrates excellent works in the field of painting, sculpture and drawing. He recognized himself as an artist who wanted to show the value of voluptuous works and his work on justice. Many of his works recreated his position to war and tortures; however, he is recognized for his pieces of oversized characters or considered obese figures.

"I have never painted fat people," Botero said. He did not paint fat people; he thought and demonstrated the logic of his works, the harmony of everything within a painting. He did not focus on "fat" people and the rest of the elements of paintings of known sizes; he painted or created everything in large volumes. This means that he does not create an obese element; he creates a volumetric atmosphere, which is not visible to the naked eye, because we are filled with criticism and precepts. That is what art is about, to capture new visions, new understandings, through art.

I think Botero was an artist without many complexes, that is, a direct artist in his works. He appreciated beauty from another perspective, from volume, grandeur, joy, abundance, pleasure, magnanimity, and he also used his large-volume works to reject war and violence. These works in this square show a little of the marvelous nature of this artist; seeing the contrast between color and black and white only gives us pieces of greater volume and drama. It was definitely worth it.

Thank you for reading my little work, thank you for supporting me, I hope you liked it, and that seeing these wonderful large-volume sculptures, in color and black and white, has been a pleasant experience, thank you again.
