Cantando
10 June 2026
Acrylic on hardboard
21 x 26.5 in (53.3 cm x 67.3 cm)
I painted this for a call for art the original idea was to use Winogrona, but I didn't like it very much. Nor did I think it conveyed the idea of a chorus group very well. I was going to paint over Winogrona, but I had enough hardboard left over so I spared it - for now. I like how it turned out and think it's a better representation of the targeted organization. The only think I would change is the sun or cloud in the left corner. I might've stretched it further across the sky to make it more mysterious. "Cantando" is the present participle in Spanish for singing or the Italian musical term meaning "in a singing, songlike style". I thought the title worked well in both cases.
This is the frame currently holding Cantando. It's nice an simple and I think the
gold makes a nice compliment to the colors of the painting.
