Flamenco: A Ziryab Night

I began to be interested in the art of flamenco after meeting Anya, the owner of the wonderful Café Ziryab in Madrid, on Paseo de la Esperanza. After enjoying a wonderful show, I decided to portray the great emotional and aesthetic intensity of this artistic genre, one of the many treasures that  Spanish culture and traditions have to offer. To this end, I wanted to give prominence to color and movement, through rapid brushstrokes on backgrounds and atmospheres of great chromatic intensity. I hope, in this way, that I have succeeded in effectively transmitting the essence of this great art and, if that was not the case, I hope at least to satisfy you with my humble vision.
