Both the work of painting the copy, and the frame itself and the canvas were made by myself: the canvas was made from raw lily and was pulled on a wooden frame in red cedar, including plaster, for which he used water-based synthetic paint, white calcium carbonate, talc, and PVC rubber; while the artisan frame is made of wood and stone plaster settings and painted in brown and bronze lacquer colors. The measurements of this copy are not the same as the original work of Picasso that is 60 x 49 cm. My intention for this copy was to experience the strokes of Picasso's cubist style in one of his most iconic and expressive portraits. The multiplicity and at the same time the simplicity of the brushstrokes that alternate in this portrait led me to discover an extraordinary alternate composition of lines, angles and surfaces that swirl and break in the face to deal with the subject of the woman's cry. The suffering that is expressed in his eyes like exorbitant canoes drifting, and the mouth and hands that break nervously add to the set of a face in full energetic outburst. The process was as follows: first copying in detail but with dimensions smaller than the proportion of the original with tracing paper. Then I used base colors for each of the areas of the silhouettes, looking to observe every detail of the chromatic variations to reproduce them with different brushes, sometimes with soft hairs, hard bristles, and various sizes. Finally, we proceed to control and correct the chromatic intensity through some glazes that add lighter or darker shades. I would like people to rediscover in this copy a reflection of Picasso.
