The Day You Died The Devil,Santa Fe,New Mexico by Alberto Thirion
The Tarahumara Indians very aptly defined the devil say, "that's crap", that is the devil simply.

The day he died the devil



The iconography is the language of symbols , there are some disturbing signs or symbols ers for the general public as is the snake 's tail , which appears in some paintings of the fifteenth century bites .

It is said that this symbol has to do with immortality and there are even those who associate it with the calling thread Kings Day on January 6.



Perhaps also the evil that destroys itself and perhaps say that this is an interpretation that I give him, if not also others.

Well the fact is that these snakes forming the sign of the cross is a symbol created by me, so that deserves plundering of me that being the main reason for this article , I must add that I been of various insults to me by the public , will surely react without thinking a bit about painting , as this used to see both "art" intracendente .



The title of this painting is , the day he died the devil , I put paint to explain briefly being also the origin and rationale of this work.

But hey already entered in the narrative I'll start from the beginning drawing the environment in which the work was given .



I was wandering and friends in the state of Durango and Chihuahua near , looking gemstones, because as you know I am fond of these things , you know that I really enjoy finding gems, and the carving and then make jewelry with them , either that walked in that place where I do not remember now name not accompany me to the other friends who were with me and I flowed only by a narrow path obeying my instincts hunter gems , I did not distract inviting other longer went to each one by hand very little walking ocupados.al found a large deposit of opal and black snakes with yellow eyes very bright , one looked at me and quickly pulling poking its ugly language.



Certainly these animals are awesome and repulsive , with a strong satanic aspect , surely this must be that through time have been associated with evil and the devil .

I ignored them and went about my business of the stones , as I say the site was huge and there were signs that others had already been digging , but the opal was the call by the common opal Geologists , ie which has no game colors , the interesting thing is that I knew the common opal and Noble are given in the same way and walk mostly mixed .



Not to trust since then flipped snakes frequent the place where the mind is vi.Yo experience that most animals, they are wild and aggressive if they can avoid it avoid conflict , only attack if threatened or having very hungry if they are carnivores.



Bad finish reviewing the site , but as was already beginning to darken , return by the same path and met with my friends, went up to the van and returned to the house , I do not remember if I Discuss some or all , on the issue reservoir and some víboras.por the years have passed and I have not been back to that place, and perhaps never will , because the guide was old and walked with difficulty , and perhaps died or can no longer walk and not I think I just may return to find that place .



Days later while dibujaba.me asked myself , as would be the day he died the devil and in my mind , I saw a flash in those same snakes doing the sign of the cross .

Why ? Because snakes are the symbol of evil , the symbol of the devil.

At death the devil snakes are good , simple as { i is the subject of this painting.



These are the preparatory drawings for the final painting, which draw to apprehend the idea, the inspiration if not at the time imprisons flees.

Years later and now I write this , I remember clear mind when doubted for a moment that certainly impact me that vision , but I went and took a pen and paper and started drawing .



Now better understand that time reminds me that another cut in to the devil's head .

This was a decision made probably tired and at such rot -called news media.



I wrote this as a courtesy on my part to the public in Beverly Hills , as Google analytics tells me that 70 % of the traffic I get to my site comes from that place of California.

El día que murió el diablo



La iconografía es el lenguaje de los símbolos ,hay algunos símbolos o signos perturba dores para el gran publico como es el de la serpiente que se muerde la cola,la cual aparece en algunas pinturas del siglo XV.

Se dice que este símbolo tiene que ver con la inmortalidad y hay incluso quien lo asocia con la llamada rosca de reyes del día 6 de enero.



Quizá también con el mal que se aniquila así mismo,digo quizá por que esta es una interpretación que yo le doy,no se si también otros.

En fin el caso es que estas víboras formando la señal de la cruz,es un símbolo creado por mi,así es que merece una expoliación de de mi parte siendo esa la principal razón de este artículo,debo añadir que a sido motivo de varios insultos para mi por parte del publico,que seguramente reaccionan sin meditar un poco sobre la pintura,acostumbrados como esta a ver tanto "arte" intracendente.



El titulo de esta pintura es ,El día que murió el diablo,se lo puse para explicar la pintura en forma breve siendo además el origen y razón de ser de esta obra.

Pero bueno ya entrados en la narración voy a empezar desde el principio dibujando el entorno en el cual se dio la obra.



Andaba yo y unos amigos en el estado de Durango cerca ya de Chihuahua, buscando piedras preciosas,por que como ustedes saben yo soy aficionado a estas cosas,ya saben que disfruto mucho la búsqueda de gemas,así como el tallar las y luego hacer joyería con ellas,bien en eso andaba en ese lugar cuyo nombre no recuerdo ahora, no me acompañe de los otros amigos que me acompañaban y me fluí solo por un angosto sendero obedeciendo a mi instinto de cazador de gemas,no quise distraerme invitando a los otros que ya andaban cada uno por su lado muy ocupados.al poco caminar encontré un gran yacimiento de ópalo y unas víboras negras con ojos amarillos muy brillantes,una de ellas me veía fijamente sacando y metiendo rápidamente su fea lengua.



Ciertamente estos animales son impresionantes y repulsivos,con un fuerte aspecto satánico,seguramente a esto se debe que a través de los tiempos se les ha asociado con el mal y el mismo diablo.

No les hice caso y seguí con mi asunto de las piedras,como digo el yacimiento era enorme y había signos de que ya otros habían estado escarbando,pero el ópalo era del llamado por los Geólogos ópalo común,es decir del que no tiene juego de colores,lo interesante es que yo sabia que el ópalo común y el noble se dan de la misma manera y andan mezclados casi siempre.



No hacia confianza de las víboras desde luego volteaba frecuente mente al lugar donde las vi.Yo se por experiencia propia que la mayoría de los animales, por salvajes y agresivos que sean si pueden evitar un conflicto lo evitan,solo atacan, si se ven amenazados o por que tengan mucha hambre si es que son carnívoros.



Acabe de mal revisar el yacimiento,pero como empezaba ya a oscurecer,regrese por el mismo sendero y me reuní con mis amigos,subimos a la camioneta y regresamos a la casa,no me acuerdo ya si les platique algo o todo, acerca del asunto del yacimiento y las víboras.por cierto han pasado los años y no he vuelto a ese lugar,tal vez ya nunca lo haga,pues el guia ya estaba viejo y caminaba con mucha dificultad,tal vez ya murió o ya no puede caminar y no creo que yo solo pueda volver a encontrar ese lugar.



Días después mientras dibujaba.me pregunte a mi mismo,como seria el día en que muriera el diablo y en mi mente,vi en un relámpago a esas mismas víboras haciendo la señal de la cruz.

Por que?por que las víboras son el símbolo del mal,el símbolo del diablo.

Al morir el diablo las víboras se hacen buenas,as{i de simple es el asunto,de este cuadro.



Estos son los dibujos preparatorios para la pintura final,los cuales dibuje para apresar la idea,por que la inspiración si no se aprisiona en el momento huye.

Años después y ahora que escribo esto,recuerdo clara mente el momento lo dudé unos instantes seguramente por que me impacto la visión aquella,pero fui y tome un papel y lápiz y empecé a dibujar.



Ahora comprendo mejor ese momento,me hace recordar aquel otro en que le corte la cabeza al diablo.

Esta fue una decisión que tome seguramente cansado ya ante tanta podredumbre en las noticias de los llamados medios de comunicación.



Esto lo escribí como una cortesía de mi parte para el publico de Beverly Hills,ya que Google analytics me indica que el 70% del trafico que recibo en mi sito proviene de ese lugar de California.

My name is Alberto Thirion and they call me the most famous painter in the world, they say it as a joke, but I liked the nickname and I have taken it as a slogan.

 The nickname or slogan was born as a logical consequence of a work entitled the death of the devil. This is the story in broad strokes, when I was still young I was exhibiting my work in the company of other fellow painters, among all the spectators who by the way this time there were many, a boy arrived who must have been rich, to whom they were going to buy a painting as a birthday present.

 The boy's mother did not want to buy the painting, but the boy was armed that this was the painting he wanted, his mother told him that how he was going to hang that painting in his room that he was surely going to have very bad nightmares, etc. Since in the play the devil appears decapitated and bleeding, -and he watched the scene without participating in it- the boy threw himself on the ground and began to have a great tantrum, hitting the ground, etc., etc.

 At the time that he said he is the most famous painter in the world, I already love her!!!, I love her!, he shouted!!! And he shouted other praises for the work that in his opinion were fair, with the desperate aim of convincing his mother, but she did not buy the work.

 That's where my fellow artists took it from to give me that nickname, years later already with the vision that time gives when seeing things in perspective. I think they unconsciously. They identified with that child, who loved that painting so much. Then that painting was stolen from me, by a thief who also wanted it, I guess, but he didn't have the money to buy it, it comforts me to think that the work took him away, the thief.
