Everyone has a secret

Watch the sunrise
Say your goodbyes
Off we go
Some conversation
No contemplation
Hit the road . . . . . . . .(Guess the song)

This is what happens when you barley see the sun dear imaginary readers, Im scared Im becoming a creature of the night, blame it on an everlasting "jetlag".

Dalí up close.

Again, I had the amazing opportunity to go visit my lover Dalí, well his work.

I really wish I could just make everyone disappear so I could stay all night

long staring (and licking* muaha) this amazing paintings.

Every time I look at them I just see something different, also I wish I could

have access to more of his work, I´ve seen many to my delight, but I need MORE!

IM GREEDY! I WANNA SEE ALL!

Here are some pictures I took of his paintings up-close (parts of).

"The difference between false memories and true ones is

the same as for jewels - It is always the false ones

that look the most real, the most brilliant."- Dalí-

Lesson to you my imaginary readers: Try to stare and absorb a painting for more than 50 seconds. Specially if is of Dalí, you will be surprised.

"This grandiose tragedy that we call modern art."- Dalí

"I tried sex once with a woman and that woman was Gala. It was overrated. I tried sex once with a man and that man was the famous juggler Federico Garcia Lorca. It was very painful."- Dalí-

"People love mystery, and that is why they love my paintings." - Dalí

(Ps. I agree mister)

"Every morning when I awake, the greatest of joys is mine: that of being Salvador Dalí."

*Licking: I have this new hobby of licking art, just so you know

I licked a Dali's painting in the Vatican, thats right THE VATICAN museum!

And it wasn't the "glass" or "frame", it was the

ACTUAL painting.

Also, like I mentioned before I licked a Dali's

sculpture in Espace Dali Montmartre.

All my loving,

Sort of dramatic P&D

Hello there, well, sorry if I´m more centered in painting than writing right now, but it is a matter of inspiration and timing, right now I´m enjoying too much sitting in my back-garden with coffee, cigarettes, music, and my instruments to paint. Free time gives my hobby (I repeat this is a hobby, Im no professional, not even close) a lift up.

"Oh Romeo Romeo, Wherefore art thou Romeo?"

"A Bloody Blimey moment"

More Experimental P&D.

HANDFUL OF WATERCOLORS

So, the experiments continue, the first in this series of hands is the original, painted with watercolors, and it proceeds to change radically to very bright "hurtful" colors (which I love).

I can´t explain my obsession with hands right now, it comes and goes.

So, enjoy.

Oh baby baby it´s a Wild World.

Experimental P & D

Experimenting with all the free time I have in my hands right now.

I´ve been doing some more paintings.

HANDS & FACES

I just loooove bright colors, I don´t know how but they cheer me up!

And by the way, its not ONE painting, they are several and with the help

of photoshop I managed to put them together like this.

Recent P & D and Cat Stevens.

So, it´s been a while since I posted a P & D entry, so here it is.

My inspiration for some of this paintings was Cat Stevens, I don´t now exactly how, I was listening to his songs and this is what popped in my mind and my hand just went along with it.

So here it is, and of course some lyrics of the amazing Cat Stevens.

"It's hard to get by just upon a smile"
