Hello, my good friends from Hive, it's your friend *Ramaco* who brings you an artistic publication that is born from the inspiration of all those socio-political and economic aspects that are affecting the entire world and that They have moved me in such a way that I made this work with the purpose of bringing more than a message, a positive wish to the whole world from my beautiful country Venezuela and for all humanity.

THANK YOU

My artwork is titled:

Oil (black gold or mene), the great discord of the planet.

Step by step procedure.

I started with a dark brown drop on the support.

I gradient the color to give shape.

Achieving a still fuzzy figure.

We mix white acrylic with watercolor.

We lighten the figure and the background.

I detailed the figure with the brush, applying some watercolor pigments.

Giving more strength to the colors to highlight the figure even more.

I show the almost finished painting with the most accentuated details.

Finished physical artwork.

Here is the work digitally worked to advertise:

"No more war."

"Yes to peace and love."

Now comes the main target of the painting with its message.

Well my friends, let me explain to you that plastic artists have characterized ourselves over the years by capturing the most relevant geo-historical moments of our lives to the point of becoming important icons of the historical experiences embodied in plastic works worldwide.

My painting shows an indigenous woman with her baby and behind them something very similar to a game board (a game of political strategies), and her pieces, said board ends with the images of some oil towers with the Venezuelan flag.

First I tell you that each of the game squares and their chips show the unhealthy plays that have symbolized the blockades that have been made against Venezuela for a long time that they have not left it progress 100% which has resulted in a precarious economic and social situation in relation to: lack of medicines, surgical material, food that is imported does not reach the country, the same fate befalls our export products since the The blockade prevents us from doing business with other countries.

On the other hand, many Venezuelans have used the unhealthy political strategy of the state to make their round and succulent businesses, objecting even more to the Venezuelan currency by selling native or imported products at low prices. of dollar while a professional Venezuelan worker or not has a salary in devalued Bolívares, which has generated a lot of discontent in the working population of a state that pays fortnights that do not cover the most basic expenses, in other words; The economic system of this country crushes the salary of the people without compassion.

The same government apathy, together with the blockade, has caused the ministries that worked with and for the people to function halfway or simply not exist, hospitals lack supplies, especially in these difficult times of a global pandemic due to COVID19 created by scientists who had nothing else to do but create a global bacteriological war, between orafter many failures that it pains me to mention.

If for some reason someone were to ask me, what do I most want for the world?, I would answer the following: That human beings change their way of thinking and not see the wars as the best multi-million dollar businesses in the world because wars cause pain, sadness and emptiness for a lifetime and ill-gotten money is spent on fads but they do not give you happiness or world peace.

It would be nice to live in a world where human beings were in charge of producing good for humanity in the future, that is, taking care of nature, cleaning polluted waters, fertilizing the earth , creating new hospitals for humans and animals that have often been abandoned in the case of health, creating schools and universities to teach children and young people to produce for a global good.

And in relation to the children of the house it is better to give them toys instead of giving them weapons, give them a watercolor, colors, love them above all things and teach them the good, the respect, morality and good customs...

They were that maybe these words are out of this unstable 21st century but how nice it would be if the world did love each other without distinction of race or social status to do good , share our culture, unite all flags in all hearts...

And to say goodbye to you for today, I want to state that the bad things in this mistreated world of the 21st century have made me think that:

The more I get to know man, the more I love my animals, but don't forget that I still have faith in God and I know that not all human beings are bad.

Thank you very much for your support!
