Woman with birds

Woman with birds

Piece description from the artist

Comment: She is surrounded by birds and is happy. On her head she has the nest of the birds, with the eggs, the leaves and the branches of the trees. She takes care of them, there is the zunzun, the woodpecker and the little birds beautifully painted to give their plumage, fantasy and realism. In the foreground is the aviary or little house where they live with their stained glass windows and doors. She dresses in a suit made of flowers and leaves with very soft and pastel tones. It is a painting that invites you to contemplate it, to look at it and to listen to the singing of the birds.

Technique: Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 75 cm x 55 cm

About Mairim Perez Roca

Havana, Cuba

I realized that I was an artist since I was a child, I really liked to draw and paint, especially with crayons and colored pencils. And what I remember most from my childhood is that I liked very much to color characters that I created myself and after I had them painted I would cut them out and create scenarios with them.

My artistic style is a creative realism. I like very much to paint women, horses, boys and girls, landscapes, that is to say different themes and I give them all my artistic mark because when I dominate the drawing I give them color with a wide chromatic range, where the light is reflected giving the planes of light and shadow. My painting is also very feminine, delicate, laborious.

When I am in front of a cardboard or a canvas I can invent a new world where everything is possible and my characters and my fantasies begin to appear. For example I like very much to paint the spring in full color, with flowers, petals, leaves, suns, butterflies and my women appear with an autobiographical look, because I see myself in them and the stories that all my paintings tell are my stories, anecdotes lived by me, or I invent them.

For me, creating is a very dynamic process, because the images come to mind with the colors and their history and it's just a matter of sitting down and capturing them on the canvas and in this way the stories come to life. When I work all my thinking is positive, creative, and that is reflected in my painting, a very feminine and beautiful painting that invites you to contemplate it.

Besides being a painter, I worked as a teacher in a painting school for children from 12 to 14 years old. It was a very nice experience because the children are very creative and like to mix colors and experiment with various techniques, such as collages, tempera and watercolor.
