PAINTING, BEING AND TO BE

In the search for serenity and balance, I was surprised by the voice of the painting. The matter spoke to me and I heard its transmutation into light. Pigments of rainbow sound glide in infinite notes, in the rapture of being one with the brush. It was not my intention to be a painter, but the subtle and unknown chance, like a spell, took me by the hand, taking me without haste or return through the maze of the line, where each step is a discovery and every shadow, a promise of light.

There is always a new birth that makes me "pintutriz". I never finish learning, weaving and unraveling dreams.

I seek the way of being to be, and the painting found me to teach me to be. I observe an event and discover a code inside me to capture it. I add veils to cover, lights to illuminate scenes, renew enigmas with each discovery.

Gently and slowly I occupy a splendid landscape, open to nature, at the hand of my eyes, waiting to be painted. Pinto: the light of day, which reveals to me the immediate; the darkness of night, which unfolds the immensity; and the light of stars, which, after years of travel, reaches my eyes, opening doors to distant worlds.

The fire of the rising sun, the night dreaming its mystery, the stillness of the sacred mountain that sustains time, the transience of life represented by ephemeral, ethereal clouds. Powerful storms hitting the roofs. Green blue in endless "sfumato", full of sky and earth. The great and the small, transformed into lines and volumes by the symphony of the brush.

​

I contemplate, consciously, how each brushstroke changes the balance of the universe. Looking at what surrounds us transforms who we are, by shaping realities previously non-existent. The manifest creation returns to our eyes. There are essential moments to share the delight. My lonely work seeks other eyes that accompany and feel in unison this sublime landscape that I contemplate, privileged and moved.

​

I did not seek to be a painter, but the mystery of fate led me through ways of being and being that I never imagined living.
