Esta pregunta me la han hecho mucha gente, amigos, periodistas, y hasta desconocidos con quienes he charlado momentáneamente en eventos o en los vernissage. La respuesta siempre es la misma: Hago arte, o sea pinto, porque soy poeta. Entonces me miran con la cara abobada y preguntan que tiene que ver la poesía con el arte. Tambien siempre contesto lo mismo, que el arte, un cuadro, una pintura o un dibujo, es un poema hecho con pinceles y con carboncillo, que un cuadro habla y cuenta de la filosofía que le ha infusionado el artista, para que, igual que una infusion, la intención se mezcle con las «hierbas aromáticas» que son los colores para que la pintura adquiera el aroma de la creatividad artística.

A lot of people have asked me this question, from friends to journalists to strangers that I may chat with at events or at a vernissage. The answer I give them is always the same: I make art, in other words, I paint because I am a poet. Then they look at me with a stunned look and ask me what does poetry have to do with painting? Again I reply the same thing, that art, a painting, or a drawing, is a poem made with brushes and graphite. That a painting speaks and tells of the philosophy that has been infused into it by the artist. And like an infusion, a painting’s intention mixes with the «aromatic herbs», which are the colours so that the painting acquires the aroma of an artistic creation.

I am not a painter, but I agree with what you said. It’s poetry using a different medium.
BTW, I read your poems in the Hidden in Childhood, they are outstanding. I read the second one (the longer one) aloud, and it’s beautiful in its story telling and lyrical filled. Congratulations!

A painting is poetry without words whereas poetry is painting without a brush. I’m paraphrasing Da Vinci I think.

I looked it up after I sent it and DaVinci phrased something similar a couple of different ways. 🤓
