#art, If You See the Soft Glow of the Interior Light, Paint It
An expressionist painting is a painting that surges, (yes, like acid reflux) from within the artist, the image, or expression cannot be stopped. It doesn’t mean that it will be painted ipso facto but it will eventually make its way on to a canvas or something. Expressionism began as a result of the difficulties of war in Europe, specifically in Germany, later in Austria, but the art form spread quickly all over Europe and then to the American continent.
To paint one has to have a few things clear in one’s head. One has to know where the composition will be placed. Will it be on paper, canvas, wood, metal, cardboard, old newspapers? One has to know the medium. Will it be acrylic paint, oil, pencil and ink, markers, or what? Then comes step two, the one where things get a bit more defined. What size will my painting be? What exactly am I going to paint? Will it be abstract, or figurative? Will it be painted horizontally or vertically? What is the idea for the composition? Landscape? Cityscape? Fantasy? Realism? Expressionist? Cubist? Surrealist? Fauve? Ad nauseam…
For me there is a little voice inside that begins to tell me what I should be thinking about… I do not draw what I see, I see what I draw, but within… That is why my painting is not pure expressionism, it is Surreal-Expressionist Jazz Art. Why jazz art? Because it is filled with improvisation, self-expression and it swings…
The two paintings in the image are from the Miami years (1996-2018) and they have been in the collection of a fabulous collector from India who also owned a beautiful home close to Miami. They are from the first phase of Surreal-Expressionism.

#art, #thoughts, Why Coffee?
The sun rises every morning…at least we think so…from the east and the coffee maker (la cafetera) sits on top of the stove waiting for the fire so that the coffee can rise and do its phenomenal job of making my mind ready for a new day…
I do not utter a single word to anyone until I have had my first sip of coffee…
Just like the sun is the light that is useful to us for everything we do in the day, coffee is useful to clear the particles of dreams left behind in our heads and prepare us for the experiences we need in the waking time line of existence. Dreams are our experiences through other time lines. Don’t believe what the «experts» (good grief experts!) say. There are more mysteries in life than what they can even imagine…

#art, #music, When Ozzy Met Andy…
Well, it appears that in 1982 Andy Warhol gave up tickets to go see Ozzy Osbourne to go have dinner at Mr. Chow’s. Yet that year they did meet.
Here is what Mr. Warhol said about The Prince of Darkness: «The rock kid who ate the heads off bats.»
And here is what The Prince of Darkness said of the artist: «I met Andy Warhol, but he was a weirdo surrounded by eccentrics.»
I fully agree with both impressions. Warhol was half right, Ozzy was a rock kid, but he only ate the head off one bat… And Ozzy was spot on about the boring, weirdo who did serigraphs of cans of Campbell soup…
So long Ozzy…

#art, The Colours of OCS Miami 2003…
I have to say that there have been some great years in my life, but most of them have a 3, like 73, 93, 2003, 2013, and 2023… And in 2003 I established, in the city of Miami Beach, Omnia Caelum Studios Miami. Of course now, since 2018, it is Omnia Caelum Studios Valencia, as we have relocated to Valencia, Spain. Omnia Caelum Studios València was established in 2019, so if you count the numbers they equal 3. And we are happy here in València… So, here are some of the colours that created my paintings that were exhibited during our first tour which started with the state of Florida (Sarasota, Bradenton, Key Biscayne and Miami), New York (Manhattan and Brooklyn) and ended in Spain (Fuendetodos, Aragón).
