Painting, Oil on Canvas
Size: 40 W x 30 H x 1 D in
All of my painting are personal but, this one is more sentimental. When you have children, you get used to life being a certain way. So, when our eldest was leaving home for college, it was challenging. We knew that soon, all the children would be gone and we were scared for them. One day, I passed a tree grove and noticed a few trees sprouting up on the fringe. The seeds had somehow gotten there and even though the saplings were no longer part of the main group, they were still close by. I realized that this is how trees grow into forests, which gave me comfort and a sense of joy. I had envisioned the single tree to represent the child but, now that I’m older, I realize it’s the other way around. – Originally titled, “Leaving Home,” implied fear and isolation when in reality, it’s an image of hope and celebration.

Statement: What is human, if not a catalyst to express the abstract form. There is a type of transcendence that occurs in Art, an almost contradictory hypnotic state of awareness. The existence of that intimate relationship between a painting and its viewer is fundamental, the obscure and imperceptible language that is only recognized by each individual, my mother would say, “ I know what I like.” There is an intentional evasiveness in my work, these are the things that are implied. When figures and nature are more about shapes and atmosphere they are reduced to emotion, this mood is their strength. Abstraction, by its very nature is disconnected and ambiguous, it’s this detachment from reality that allows it to become a middle ground for cognitive subject matter. Something familiar but not specific - a sense of place but from a separate reality. See more: http://www.ajvalero.com/about-3/
