this piece one month after the birth of my son, Aritz. It took about two months to finish, between taking care of my son, trying to sleep and adjusting to a very new life. I held Aritz most of the time and used the sling (like the one in the painting) so that he could be close to me while I painted. Madre Gotica represents a big chunk of our time together during that period. I called this "Gotica" because of the shape of her hair. It reminds me of the Gothic churches and cathedrals in my home country with the point windows. She has dark native skin and a Gothic European shape--the two roots where my son comes from." - Sole Ciganda
