Las Perlas del Sur-Oil painting by Clina Polloni.

Seascapes of fishing boats from the south of Chile called Lanchas Chilotas. As the sunrise, they are waiting for a busy day in the cold sea.

Fishing in Chile is a major industry with the seventh largest commercial catch in the world. The Chilean Sea is considered among the most productive marine ecosystems in the world. Artisanal fishing is practiced all over Chile’s long coastline and combines industrial techniques with pre-Hispanic traditions.

Alberto Polloni Roldán. El Canelo, Chile.

The Polloni Family.

The day of my birthday, we went to climbed the mountains to visit my grandfather grave and home.

El Canelo, Chile.

He wanted his tomb to be in the top of the mountain with a view of his beautiful little town. Family, cousins and children got together in a tribute to a wonderful man, Alberto Polloni Roldán. El Canelo, Chile.

Casa de Campo Painting.

Casa de Campo in Chile.

Learn to paint an adobe house with tile roof. Chile in the 1800’s.

Painting Class Taught by Clina Polloni.

Casa de Campo en Chile

Casa de Campo, Chile in the 1800’s.

This painting was inspired by my life in Rabones, a valley of dreams located in the mountains of the central region of Chile. I lived for 10 years in our farm called “Las Puertas de Rabones”. I was close to God, to people, nature and to animals. Memories of golden sunny days, enjoying the company of beautiful people with spirits as clear as the crystal waters of “Rio Putagan” running through the fertile land. I learned about their culture, their traditions and the purity of their lives.

The Market Girl Painting

The Market Girl Painting

“The Market Girl”: In the Hispanic culture it is a tradition to go to the market, where the local people bring their fresh fruits, vegetables and craft. This girl is proud to show her flowers and vegetables with her colorful hand netted ponchos in the back.

I did this painting when I went to Ecuador. Inspired by their colorful art and culture, very similar to most of the countries in South America.

Clina Polloni is a contemporary artist born in Chile. Her oil paintings are inspired by her love for people, animals and nature. Her new project: “The motif of the human figure in a dialogue with natures light and colors.” In these new paintings she is portraying people in their environment and activities, representing the American and Hispanic Culture.

Casa de Paja

Casa de Paja

A straw farm house painting in Chile by Clina Polloni.

Casa de Paja en Chile

Casa de Paja en Chile

In the early years of Chile, even in the 1800’s, farmers planted their wheat in the fields. This was one of their most important sources of food. They baked their bread in an open fire, prepared mote con huesillos and other culinary dishes. And when the harvest was all over, they built their thatched houses with straw.

I did this painting from a sketch that my great grandfather, Antonio Polloni did when traveling and painting the country side of Chile in the 1800’s.

Oil on Canvas – 36”x 30”

I did this painting when I went to Ecuador. Inspired by their colorful art and culture, very similar to most of the countries in South America. People live in the cosmopolitan cities surrounded by malls and a variety of today’s modern stores. But the beautiful thing is that they preserve their culture in the market.
