Gisela Tabú #3

This is my newest piece. Measuring 60 x 80 cm, I painted it with acrylic paint on canvas. It is part of a series. The first Gisela Tabú I painted at Omnia Caelum Studios Miami back in 1998.

I should give a little background…

Gisela was a character I developed for a play (musical comedy) that I wrote in 1993, which was presented in Miami. While working with the actress to develop the character we joked and played around with what would be prohibited, or taboo, when interacting with Gisela. We decided it was everything, so we called her Gisela Tabú (taboo in Spanish).

The first painting, which is in a private collection in the US, is basically a portrait of Gisela, the character of the play, and symbols of her interactions in the play. The play was called “Alas” (“Wings”).

(Although not a very good picture…lamentably it is the only one I have…this is «Gisela Tabú» the original, from 1998. Image property of FBC, Omnia Caelum Studios València, All Rights Reserved)

“Gisela Tabú #2” has also been sold, to a collector in Portugal.

I consider the paintings to be “Contemporary Expressionism” and, as in many of my paintings, the “characters” exist in a pop-abstract (sometimes surreal) background.

Here are some details of GT3:

    Both of these pieces are exquisite and worthy of any collection, my friend. I love the multi-faceted representation where I find interesting things hidden throughout each painting, and each adds some greater understanding or appreciation for the image.
