Ok, so here is one version of this image, (one of my Art Digital), the «canvas print,» but there are more here, so look through my gallery at Fine Art America. And remember, they handle everything and ship quickly. This is a great way to have original art at very affordable prices…

Los colores por sí mismos son arte, pero hay que saber usarlos, aunque no necesariamente hay que regirse por las normas y preceptos tradicionales, pero si utilizarlos para crear, desarrollar ideas y mas… Para mi, el dibujo en blanco y negro es un cuadro con menos colores, pero un cuadro a todo color es un cuadro que brilla por su complejidad y por estar en un estado de perfección completa. Aquí os brindo algunos de los viejos y uno de los nuevos que demuestra lo que siento por los colores….

Colours themselves are art, but you have to know how to use them skilfully, although you don’t necessarily have to adhere to traditional rules and precepts, you would do good to use them to create and develop ideas and more… For me, my black and white drawings are paintings with fewer colours, but a full-color picture is one that shines with complexity and in a state of complete perfection. Here I present some of the old ones and one of the new ones that shows what I feel about colours.

Good morning – Buenos días – Günaydın

Que cosa más rara la que he visto durante estas elecciones aquí en España. Parece ser que lo único que importa es atacar a la derecha pero ni pio de los problemas a los cuales se enfrentan los españoles diariamente, izquierdistas o derechistas. La ideología no paga las cuentas ni ponen pan sobre la mesa. Además, el ganador es el que la mayoría ha elegido presidente…

Primero agradecerle a Juan Re Crivello, ese gran mago y excelente escritor que idealizó algo tan fenomenal como MASTICADORES y me invitó a formar parte, y segundo a vosotros. Ademas queria identificar el cuadro de Leonardo que menciono y es este:

(«La dama del armiño» circa 1490/Dominio público)

#art, What! You’re Going to Study Art?

(Obra original de Francisco Bravo Cabrera/Derechos Reservados – Original work by Francisco Bravo Cabrera/All Rights Reserved)

But at uni professors don’t know anything about how to be an artist mate…

Are you going to be taught how to make art or glorify those who dedicate themselves to video, performance and installation (VIP)? They’re going to drill into your head that Warhol was a genius, that Jeff Koons is the Wizard of Oz, and that Damien Hirst is bang on perfect…

Go ahead, study, but keep in mind that university education is a waste of time. Ask Lennon and McCartney and they’ll tell you that the only way to learn is on the fly. The university is only good for you to end up, after being bestowed with that bachelor’s, master’s, or doctorate, facing life with no clue how to fit in and wind up getting depressed. And once you’re beaten, defeated and wasted, you’ll start…without even realising it…your career as a failed artist.

You’ll say that the art world is a fraud, a piece of shit, and that you’ll only be recognized when you’re dead. After all the only famous artists are the dead ones. You’re right. Keep going like that, failure is your goal and you’ll get there. Walk around dressed like a ragpicker…a starving artist… and constantly talk about Van Gogh, Warhol, and Dalí. Remind everyone who approaches you… if anyone does… that those were tormented artists and that only Dalí lived well because he came from a wealthy family. Go to all the vernissages and gallery openings and tell everybody you’ve got shows lined up in Ulan Bator, Upper Volta, and Oshkosh and that Jeff Koons thinks you’re smashing good…

Next step on your road to being a failed artist is to become addicted to drugs and to become a drunk because that way you won’t be able to paint, sculpt, or do anything. So don’t paint, don’t read about art, don’t worry about composition, perspective, colour theory or even knowing who the hell was Michelangelo. And if someone sees one of your few paintings and tells you how poorly it is painted, tell them that art has no rules and that you can do whatever you want. Or just tell them that they don’t have the sensitivity to recognise the sufferings of a tormented artist. That’s how you’ll be a great failure. After all that’s what you’ve set out to do…

And well, I haven’t seen much of life or ventured much out of my cave, except for that one summer afternoon when I was taken to see the King and Queen in the streets of Mallorca…

Y ahora para aquellos que entendéis el castellano, aquí os dejo el vídeo que inspiro todo lo que en inglés he escrito.

Gracias…

#poem, «She Comes in Colours» (A Euro-Ku)

(Photo by Francisco Bravo Cabrera/All Rights Reserved)

Colours fly like smoke from fancy cigarettes,

they wrap around your ears,

they drift above your head, and kiss you tenderly on ruby lips,

then rip your flesh with swords of amethyst,

with nails of absinthe…

+++

And with yellow strands of yellow stones

they tie your hands, they break your bones…

+++

And pink reflections,

thoughts and lies,

return you home

to where you hide…

C.2023, Francisco Bravo Cabrera, 31 JUL 2023, Valencia, Spain

I created the Euro-Ku, (02/02/2022), a unique poetic form blending the traditional haiku and European themes. It consists of three verses of whatever length you want to make them and requires an original illustration. Explore the beauty and heritage of Europe through the Euro-Ku.
