Buen día para todos🍀 Good morning to all🍀
At home there is a very beautiful picture painted by my mom, my mother is fond of painting, and I think, not only because she is my mother, but because I really think so, she paints very beautifully, she has learned to play with light and colors, at least that's how I see it.
Pero no les quiero hablar de las habilidades de mi madre como pintora, no, realmente quiero contarles otra cosa, pero está relacionada con el cuadro que pintó mi madre.
But I don't want to tell you about my mother's skills as a painter, no, I really want to tell you something else, but it is related to the picture my mother painted.
Bueno, les cuento, yo llevo muchos años viviendo en casa de mi mamá, en una casa muy modesta, y a la que poco a poco le hemos hecho arreglos y modificaciones. Una de las cosas que quiso mi madre adornar, fue su sala, y decidió entonces hacer un cuadro.
Well, let me tell you, I have been living at my mother's house for many years, in a very modest house, and little by little we have made repairs and modifications. One of the things that my mother wanted to decorate was her living room, and so she decided to make a painting.
Lo hizo mirando una revista, le quedó bonito, y lo insólito, bueno sé que insólito en este caso es una palabra exagerada, pero realmente, lo más llamativo del cuadro es que lo hizo directamente en la pared.
He did it looking at a magazine, it looked nice, and the unusual, well I know that unusual in this case is an exaggerated word, but really, the most striking thing about the painting is that he did it directly on the wall.
Cómo lo hizo directamente a la pared, comenzó a ver que marco le ponía. Yo creí que buscaría un carpintero que le hiciera un marco, eso estaría bien, pero no, no fue de esa manera, ella buscó listones de anime, de los que se usan en las esquinas de los techos rasos, tampoco estaba mal, y los pintó con pintura dorada.
As she did it directly to the wall, she started to see what frame she could put on it. I thought she would look for a carpenter to make a frame, that would be fine, but no, it wasn't that way, she looked for anime strips, the kind that are used in the corners of the ceilings, it wasn't bad either, and painted them with gold paint.
Hasta ahora todo bien, pero cuando pegó el marco, no detalló los extremos, y créanme, no se como la gente se aguantaba de hacer comentarios, pero al entrar a la casa lo primero que me daba en los ojos era lo desmarcado de los marcos del cuadro😂
So far so good, but when he glued the frame, he did not detail the ends, and believe me, I do not know how people could stand to make comments, but when I entered the house the first thing that hit me in the eyes was how unmarked the frames of the painting were😂.
Lo que si es verdad, es que pocos se daban cuenta de que no estaba dibujado sobre tela, y claro de tanto mirar el cuadro supongo que detallando el desmarcado marco, se sorprendían al darse cuenta que fue hecho directamente en la pared.
What is true is that few people realized that it was not drawn on canvas, and of course, after looking at the painting I guess detailing the unmarked frame, they were surprised to realize that it was made directly on the wall.
En todo este tiempo siempre fui muy respetuosa de las decisiones de mi madre y de sus cosas, pero ya como que pasó mucho tiempo con ese marco desmarcado, y decidí acabar con ese descuadre.
In all this time I was always very respectful of my mother's decisions and her things, but it was a long time since I had that unmarked frame, and I decided to put an end to that mismatch.
Lo despegué, no pude seguir viendo más esos animes, y entonces aproveché que se hicieron unas remodelaciones en la cocina donde se usó ráquira, y me dije: "Esté es el momento"😘
I took it off, I couldn't watch those anime anymore, and then I took advantage of some remodeling work in the kitchen where ráquira was used, and I said to myself: "This is the moment"😘.
Tomé unas cuantas ráquiras y le hice el nuevo marco a la pintura de mi madre, enseguida de haber terminado la obra hice una video llamada y le mostré a mi madre como me había quedado el trabajo, y le encantó. Ahora el cuadro luce más, y ya no me hace ruido verlo al entrar a casa.
I took a few raquiras and made the new frame for my mother's painting, immediately after finishing the work I made a video call and showed my mother how the work had turned out, and she loved it. Now the painting looks better, and it is no longer noisy to look at it when I enter the house.
Hay detalles que definitivamente marcan la diferencia.
There are details that definitely make a difference.
