Viria Salas Araya.........................................Gallery 5
Viria Salas Araya is 39 years old and is married to Fidel Rodriguez with whom she has 4 children. She is currently the president of the group and has been the spokesperson for the groups since its inception. Her paintings are based on her home life and every day scenes. As Viria says," We paint what we see and what we know. Ana (Barrientos) says we should play with colors. From the moment we make a design, we should imagine the colors we are going to use. What's nice is to use one's imagination…I love to paint peaceful things, nothing dramatic. What always come out are the mountains, animals and couples in particular because I feel those are close relationships."
"El pintar para mi es un motivo de expresión, por medio de la pintura puedo decir lo que me gusta o no, pintando o dibujado el tiempo es infinito; mas al saber de que esto que hago me ayuda a mejorar la condición de vida de mi familia esto me motiva a esforzarme por hacer las cosas cada vez mejor. A pesar que la mayoría del tiempo paso en mi casa solo no lo siento porque con las pinturas pasa el tiempo sin pensar en otras cosas por eso agradezco a Dios, a Rebecca, Fernando y Ana por la paciencia y motivación por enseñarnos a descubrir en el dibujo y la pintura una nueva forma de ver la vida y todo lo que nos rodea."
"Painting for me is a way of expressing myself, through painting I am able to say that what I like and don’t like, in painting or drawing time is infinite; even more so knowing that what I am doing is helping to improve how my family lives motivates me to do do things better each time. Although most of the time I am in my house alone, I don’t feel it because painting helps pass the time without thinking in other things for this I thank God, Rebecca, Fernando and Ana for their patience and motivation to teach us how to discover in drawing and painting a new way of seeing life and all which surrounds us."
