this is one of the places in thecaribbean that gauguin would really love. itâ´s a far remote place in a cave with the ocean full of mystery and secrets. his working technique would not be such a mystery, itwould be a process and he would stick to the process at first he would go around the island and collect some thing thatimpress him and out of the things he would take out some symbols
symbols that are full of meaning for a mystery or somethingthat he want to express. in the next step he would take some ofthis symbols that he had collected and put it together to some scratchers, this scratchers are not pictures, like a like a photography ora snapshot but they are full of meaning, becausefirst he was collecting not things but symbols, symbols with ameaning and dis meanings are output together to a new context in a new picture
in the next step he will try some colordesigns. this color designs he is doing mostly with watercolors,because it's a quick way to find out whichcolor are working together which are not and also you can see thestructure of the picture very well already with the water colors the next step is unusually a acribic because he is putting over his design a grid and transforming his first stretches to the canvas and then
all the lines are made again with prussian blue the next step is to work all the colorsthat i already have in my color designs. iâ´m working not with big spaces to make the sky blue but from one focus point to the outside now i'm finishing the picture but thebest part about a gauguin picture is that it has to be unfinished,it is still a adventure
it is still part of this mystery of thecaribbean something raw something dangeroussomething mysteries. i hope this little demonstration could interestyou in a gauguin painting adventure because painting like gauguin it's not only about making pictures but it's also a lifestyle, a dangerousadventurous lifestyle and that's what i love about ist
