I love art, especially graphic art.
Here is a drawing from a Latin American illustrator, whose name I am not going to reveal yet. The question is: what is the title of this drawing?

The man is hispanohablante, so the title is in Spanish wink

Almost correct, Nilda. Just drop the 'i'. La Jardinera (Rodrigo Díaz Carrizo )

The heart is the symbol of either love or freely expressed emotions. If you look closely you see that the heart is in a cage, so the owner must be quite bitter about this - it looks like the sadness of forbidden love, that allows to grown thorns.

In the context that the trapped heart is the symbol of emotions, as opposed to her head that is not covered, it can be interpreted as an imbalanced combination between rational and emotional life.

El corazón es el símbolo de amor o emociones libremente expresadas. Si se mira de cerca, verá que el corazón está en una jaula, por lo que el propietario debe ser bastante amargo acerca de esto, parece como una tristeza de amor prohibido, que permite a crecido espinas.

En el contexto en el que el corazón atrapado es el símbolo de las emociones, a diferencia de su cabeza que no está cubierto, puede interpretarse como una combinación desequilibrada entre la vida emocional y racional.

Omg, rac1, the title is supposed to begin with 'la' .... but this answer is almost correct. Adapt 2 words and leave out 1 and taraaaaaaaa .... bingo ..... jackpot ;-) - mcl020, Jun 15, 2012
Now I know the answer! Should I say it? - Juliss, Jun 15, 2012

The position of her hands is like if she were playing the guitar. How about "La música es vida" (Music is life)? Hmm, how many words does the title have? :D

That is what I was going for at first, it looked like she was playing a stringed instrument. - pmikan-pam, Jun 15, 2012

Time for some helpful hints:

We already know that the title has everything to do with what is depicted.
The word 'flower(s)' is not in the title.

The title is the article 'la' + a noun: la ..........

It has nothing to do with her looks (I mean: it's not old, sad, bitter, wise, ....) and even though it looks like she's playing some sort of imaginary guitar, she is not. The title has nothing to do with music.
But ... she does 'play (with) those plants' ......

I have been verrrrrrry helpful, I think wink))

The woman in the picture looks sad so I'll try this one although I don't think we will guess the title.

Mother Earth sings a song of sadness!

¡La Madre tierra canta una canción de Tristeza!
