About The Artwork

(Art Work with the included frame). This is one of the most famous works of the Spanish Baroque master Velazquez and it is in the permanent exhibition of the Prado Museum. This copy is the fruit of a painstaking study of the master's works. This work represents the mythological god of war Mars after most likely an arduous combat with his lover Venus. This god was also the god of manhood. In this scene he appears sitting on the edge of the bed with a tired face. It is very possible that Velazquez introduced a veiled criticism against the king for the current political situation. The Spanish monarchy had been involved in a war of religion in northern Europe for several years and the Spanish people, although brave and brave, were very tired by this senseless war. I really enjoyed copying this painting, to which I dedicated several years, while learning the technique from the master.

I am an artist and designer. I grew up in Alcobendas and settled in Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, in 2003, where I currently reside. From a very young age I developed an enormous interest in history, art history and analog photography, which led me to study Fine Arts, focusing on the world of restoration, thinking about the masters of the Italian Renaissance and the Spanish Baroque. Although finally the absence of creativity in this field of work and study led me to another path. I worked for a time as a copyist at the Prado Museum to study how to paint my favorite classics, and then I devoted myself exclusively to everything that caught my attention both in terms of subjects and techniques (engraving, woodcut, inks on greasy paper, mural painting, egg tempera, polymeric putties with marble dust, etc.) I work as an illustrator in various specialized magazines, as a web designer, creating storyboards for film and television. I went through several multidisciplinary artistic formations, the last one being "Make Make Creative Process". During the study with this artistic training, focused on the synaesthetic process and creativity, I find a line to develop (Prometheu error: conjunction of body, movement, music and space) in which I am currently immersed.
