Laughing… is a lifestyle. And it's not a matter of knowing how to tell the best joke or being the clown at the party it's simply not taking life so seriously. Especially understanding that we are not the center of the universe, and that life is so short. The 11 years I have been as immigrant have been like cats, with many new lives: Lots of obstacles and tests that I have had to go through and, above all, a learning process in every way. Of course, not knowing things puts you at a disadvantage and sometimes even makes you look ridiculous, and I think the best way to react to this is laughing because admitting that you don't know everything could be really funny. I want to dedicate this painting to my mother, who was a queen in knowing how to use humour to socialize, as a sales tool and even to cover up her mental failures when she began her Alzheimer's process. I hope this painting brightens your day because laughter is like yawning... highly contagious!s
