Here are two paintings from days of old. They are from my days in Miami, Fla… The first one goes back to 2005 and the second one to 2007. Both paintings are now in private collections in Europe but the images remain and the reasons I painted them as well remain. Here’s a little more about my Surreal-Expressionism and my JaZzArt.
LA VIOLINISTA
“La Violinista” is a prime example of my style, “Surreal-Expressionism”. The violinist as the every-woman-musician. She is faceless and nameless. Yet she exudes style and grace as well as a clear, and well defined, femininity. The Violinist is in motion, walking among those that look upon her and either understand her work or are perplexed by it. No one is indifferent to her as she moves. The painting, true to Surreal-Expressionism, has an abstract background where three flowers bloom and grow and form an acute triangle within the composition.
Moño Azul
An example of early Surreal-Expressionism which keeps up precisely with the precepts of JaZzArt. I was still researching both at the time, (2007), when «Moño Azul» was painted. It is done with acrylics on canvas. The background is abstract and filled with color. The principal part of the composition is the blue silhouette of a woman whose hair is combed into a bun. She is looking to the right side towards a very stylized, Egyptian-style flower. To the left of the main part of the composition one sees the more surreal aspect of the painting where a face seems to hover above a hand-drum, symbolizing the creation of music which rises, like black smoke from the drum.

“La Violinista” has always been one of my favorite paintings. I love the way the flores are painted. The leaves look like butterflies and the beautiful blue and yellow look like a butterfly wing. This is a magnificent painting Francisco. Thank you for sharing both paintings and their meaning. Just incredibly gorgeous as is all your work. The bold and deliberate colors here in both paintings put those viewing both women in awe. Bravo!

Thank you Joni, so very much! There’s always meaning and a message within a work of art, sometimes it is easily seen and understood, other times it is up to the viewer’s imagination. Both are right and good. I really appreciate your thoughts, words and replies. Blessings to you both!

She is exquisite in every way and the violin is one of my favorite instruments. You are so right about watching women on stage playing an instrument too. The sway of their head, the closing of the eyes and the delicate way they hold their instruments. Just such an amazing work of art my friend. Thank you for your blessings and we send more back. I will forever be in awe of your ability to paint. Your poetry is so splendid as well. You are already doing with poetry what you do with your artwork. Emotionally drawn in and captivated by your words. God’s Grace our friends. You bring so much beauty in our world. Thank you for that. ❤️🙏❤️
