Antes del JaZzArT, en 2002, había esto: Before JaZzArT there was this in 2002: Dibujos hechos como si fueran una canción de jazz… Drawings made like one would a jazz tune… Y esto vino después… And this came later… Gracias… Cheers…
Este no soy yo, este es un actor que hace el papel de Francisco Bravo Cabrera/Bodo Vespaciano en todas mis redes sociales… This is not me. In photos where I appear who you see is an actor playing the role of Francisco Bravo Cabrera/Bodo Vespaciano…
Jaén is the capital of the province of Jaén in Andalucía, Spain. It is a rather large city with lots of history, a phenomenal cathedral and beautiful small towns all around. Definitely worth a visit next time you are wondering around the south of the Iberian peninsula. But in the meantime let me take you

Well…an artist creates a painting, a sculpture; a composer a song or a symphony, and perhaps many tunes in between; a choreographer creates a ballet, a modern or jazz dance. But I am a painter. Although I did create…back in 1997…my «greatest» work, I call him «Bodo Vespaciano».
I just want to mention that I write, compose and paint, but I do it as the practitioner of a craft…an art-form to many…and not as something intuitive. I have studied and researched my craft too much to allow for something to surge spontaneously out of «inspiration». I am a craftsman so I plan everything, sketch out everything, research colours, tones, hues et cetera and plan…very well…my compositions. And as an artist, I use emotions as a tool. Raw emotion is not art.
I hope you enjoy my site, my blog, my work and whatever else happens to make its way into this site.
Your visits are tremendously appreciated, cheers…

Esto salió hoy en el Instagram del periódico español El Mundo. Supuestamente lo dijo Thomas Carlyle, filósofo, historiador, traductor, matemático, crítico social y ensayista. Un escocés muy atareado este señor que también fue catedrático y hasta llego ser rector de la Universidad de Edimburgo. En mi humilde opinion, Carlyle tiene razón. Vamos que esto se
A very interesting and little known surreal woman artist of the XX C. If you are interested about surrealism or about Art History in general, this is one painter, overlooked for sure, that is interesting and that you should get to know. She is another woman artist left aside because surrealists were such macho-men! Cheers…
