    Wow….wow…all these masks and I love every one of them….gorgeous work. Intense and intimate.

  • helene ruiz replied

    i did these paintings in 2006 along with walking amongst the phonies(here on my folio also) worked on them running in circles and turning the canvases while listening to music, i just let the brush and color come from the music….they are very long 6ft and very narrow 3 feet wide….

    Layers of masks = no wonder the color is so deep!
    A terrible thought, but so true and and dangerous for the naive among us…

  • helene ruiz replied

    yes we are surrounded by people wearing masks everyday arent we

    I love this…fits together well. The difference between this and “Know Your Friends” is night and day, yet it seems to be the same message.

  • helene ruiz replied

    lol..yes…same message.. different use of symbols

    Hands masking motivations for acting.
    Lips masking twisting of hearts frustations.
    Chins masking a trembling of the soul.
    Eyes masking the clear feelings of anger or tenderness.
    Shoulders masking the coldness that it is not.
    Laberynth of forms in expressive dancing…
    a bachanalian freedom o masks….
    ready to rest….
    upon…..
    the musts and shoulds…
    but…
    tomorrow.
    Rosa (mmmmmm precious helene…. vivacity and colour…tangible for me)

    I don’t know why but I have NOT been getting these! Darn it! If it wasn’t for your calendar, I never would have known they existed! And, yes, and oh my, do I want to know they exist.

    This is beautiful! I love the jumbledness of it, all, and the details on the masks, and the colors, and everything!

    Also, the theme reminds me a bit of On The Way To The Masquerade, which I need to actually work on and make a painting of. At least a digital painting!

  • helene ruiz replied

    thx arletta….im out of town…..can only get online when someone comes thru w/a laptop i can borrow…wont be home for 2 wks..
