About this artwork
Diosa: Abstract Portrait of a Goddess
A portrayal of divine grace, this artwork begins with a burnt umber background, gradually introducing lead white in layers, to establish the tonal features of the visage, as a grisaille underpainting.
As the image unfolds, the deity emerges through overlays of colour glazing. Shades of cadmium orange, red, and yellow, mixed with linseed oil, are delicately brushed on, creating a translucent effect that allows… the subtle nuance of reflective qualities from the lead white to shine through. Along the edges, streaks of ultramarine blue, viridian green, burnt umber and cadmium orange add depth and dimension to the composition. The formulation of "Diosa" involves the sequence of layering tonal values, with ample drying time between each glaze application. This meticulous process results in tones that overlay and blend seamlessly, evoking a soft and delicately applied aesthetic.
