A new Nordeste painting is in the process of being created. This is part of the of Nordeste series and is called Boia Fria "cold food" since they take theirr food to field daily and don't have resources like microwaves or an oven to warm up the food,this is why it is usually called " Boia Fria "
Cabecao By Tony Parana
This piece is not similar to my usual work that I like to show. The initial reaction bu others (especially if you had seen my previous/usual work) is not necessarily positive in comparison. This new work came from a unconscious, internal inspiration that starts in a split second, while doing everything else simultaneously. Inspiration is not predicted but a nice flow begins when the canvas comes to life. It may come from sometimes doing other paintings, while cleaning a brush with left over paint, etc. It is my freedom in art time,,,, is the moments when you least expect it!
