SUMMERTIME acrylic on board 24×24 abstract expression

categories For Sale, Life, Music, People | comments 0 Comments

Summer is my favorite  season. Everything is easier in summer, no rain, no snow, vacation time, going to the beach, a little swimming, a little fishing, picnics.

I have lived in Toronto Canada, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, winters were hard on me, I used to dream of summer a lot.

When I moved to Southern California, I found the weather that went well with my personality, although you still have different seasons, they are much milder and easy to live with.

George Gershwin’s SUMMERTIME was at my side while painting this one, imagining  the easy living and the fish that were jumping.

Gershwin, what a genius, definitely one of my all time favorite composers.

FANTASY acrylic on board 24×24 abstract expression

categories For Sale, Imagination, Music | comments 1 Comment

Abstract expression is a feeling that you paint  spontaneously without thought or planning, for me usually music is my inspiration, I paint while music directs my strokes whether  gently or strongly, light colors or dark.

When I finish the painting and am satisfied with the way it looks, I examine  it to  see if it reminds of anything familiar.

Fantasy reminds me of a circus with a high wire dancer. What do you see?

LA BOHEME 20×24 Acrylic on canvas abstract expression

categories Music | comments 0 Comments

A tribute to Charles Aznavour, the most influential composer, poet, singer in my life.  I was 17 years old when I first heard his SUR MA VIE and since then he has been in my life as well almost all of my friends’.  LA BOHEME  is one of my favorite songs  being an artist myself, I visualized Monmartre from his description  in an abstract expression. When you are young you see everything positive, colorful and lovely and as you get older things change a little.  Everyone  has a little bit of La Boheme in our lives.  I am happy to say that I still have some LA BOHEME in my life and I  hope you have some in yours too.

Flamenco music inspired me on this Abstract expressionistic painting. The rhythm, the clapping, the dancers,the bright colors, love that music and the Spanish culture, so warm and full of life, lively. I hope looking at this painting you get the same uplifting feeling  I got.
