Homenaje a Gora 2014

Requena Nozal made this vibrant acrylic painting, Homenaje a Gora, with all its energy and life. Imagine the artist wielding the brush, splattering and swiping those greens, yellows and blues. It feels like a dance, doesn't it? I sympathize with Requena Nozal, and imagine what it was like to have the courage to make this painting! You know, sometimes you just gotta let the paint do its thing! The canvas is alive with these little dashes and droplets, a real celebration of color and movement. It’s like they’re saying, "Hey, let's have some fun!". It reminds me of Joan Mitchell's playful compositions, the way she would let the brush roam free and wild. But Requena Nozal has their own rhythm, their own way of making a splash. We painters are always egging each other on, across time and space, keeping the conversation going.
