Today I pay tribute to some magical hands, the hands of my talented grandmother. As a child, I remember admiring the beauties that my grandmother made with her hands, headbands, hats, harlequins, paintings and flower arrangements in which she made petal by petal with her own hands. I didn't understand how she could make so many beautiful things. Eventually my mom told me about all the hard work that went into her talent, but to me, my grandmother was making magic.
Cerámica.
Yo solo suelo ver sus obras, cuando tuve uso de razón ya las manos de mi abuela podían hacer muy poco su magia. Mi mamá me cuenta que en la casa habían dos hornos de cerámica, muy grandes, mi abuela tenia los moldes, así que los hacía, los horneaba, pintaba, volvía a hornear, secaba y el resultado final, sorprendente.
Ella buscaba distintas técnicas, este arreglo de flores, lo hizo con arcilla, moldeó pétalo por pétalo con sus manos, luego lo horneaba.Ceramics.
I only use to see her works, when I had the use of reason my grandmother's hands could do very little of her magic. My mom tells me that, in the house there were two ceramic kilns, very large, my grandmother had the molds, so she made them, baked, painted, baked again, dried and the final result, amazing.
She looked for different techniques, this flower arrangement, she made it with clay, molded petal by petal with her hands, then baked it.
Cuadros.
Estos cuadros se conservan en mi hogar con mucho cariño, mi abuela utilizo una técnica de relieve, luego de hacer su diseño, los mandaba a enmarcar. El búho en especial, adorna la casa de una manera imponente.
Charts.
These paintings are kept in my home with much affection, my grandmother used a relief technique, after making her design, she sent them to be framed. The owl in particular, adorns the house in an imposing way.
Con el tiempo, producto de una enfermedad, mi abuela no podía seguir realizando su magia, luego partió al cielo. Sin embargo, su obra en nuestro hogar perdura, todas estas obras que con gusto les comparto, tienen más 35 años entre nosotros.
Eventually, due to an illness, my grandmother could no longer perform her magic, then she went to heaven. However, her work in our home endures, all these works that I gladly share with you, have more than 35 years among us.
