E. García - MUCHACHO CON PERRO XL (NO RESERVE)

BOY WITH DOG is a 70x100 cm painting by contemporary artist Ernest García. In this work, a young figure poses serenely beside his faithful canine companion, framed by a background divided into two blocks of intense color: a deep turquoise blue on the left and a vibrant orange-red on the right. The boy, dressed in an ochre jacket, a white-and-black vertically striped shirt, and a light-colored hat, looks at the viewer with a mix of serenity and introspective maturity. In his lap, he gently holds a white dog with black spots that seems to share his calm.

The composition is frontal, direct, yet laden with symbolic and chromatic intent. The flat colors of the background not only visually separate the space, but also heighten the duality and balance between warm and cool, rational and emotional. The thick brushstrokes and the contrasts of light and shadow build an expressive atmosphere, close to a psychological portrait, where the dog functions as the emotional extension of the character: firm, faithful, calm.

The pictorial treatment recalls both the aesthetics of Fauvism and modern portraiture, with a bold palette and a clear construction of forms. The relationship between human figure and animal suggests a quiet intimacy, an alliance between equals, as if they together inhabited a slowed-down and sincere world, detached from the outside bustle.

It is a work that, without resorting to narrative artifices, manages to condense presence, character, and a restrained emotionality, leaving space for the spectator to project their own story.
