Carolina Alonso - „Stachelig“**XL

Prickly XL

In this impressive artwork, we encounter a young boy rendered in deep blue and gray tones. Standing patiently with his hands in his pockets, he looks down at a hedgehog, whose spiky body is prominently in the foreground. The soft pastel colors of the background lend a dreamy and serene atmosphere to the scene, drawing the viewer's eye and inviting them into a world of childhood curiosity and innocence.

The choice of colors and the technique of oil paints give the work not only depth but also a certain liveliness that impressively emphasizes the interplay between the boy and the hedgehog. The dimensions of 100 x 70 x 4 cm provide enough space for the details that create a sense of closeness and intimacy between the two main figures.

The artwork is delivered with a sturdy stretcher frame, ensuring it can be hung immediately – a perfect element to enrich any space with a touch of childlike discovery and gentle joy. 'Stachelig' invites the viewer to experience the beauty and fragility of nature through a child's eyes.


To me

In my artistic practice, the human figure and the animal world are central elements that interact with each other and tell stories.

Since 2004, I have been working as a freelance artist, navigating between the realms of modern art, street pop art, and photorealism. I work with acrylic and oil on various materials such as wood, glass, or canvas. My images do not follow a strict theme but instead showcase the diverse aspects of human life. Whether I depict a passionate flamenco dancer, a sensually waiting woman, or a casual man with a hat – the human being is always at the center of my creations.
