I´M LIKE THE WEATHER, COLD AND OFF, BAH!!! A WIDE SMILE. :D

Hello @ll,

I took a few days as the weather, cold, dull, almost withered I´d say. I think that’s what happens to Superman, I take energy from the sun and sunless I´m nothing.

Today I´ll leave you a little piece that I painted a few months ago, it lacks some tweaks but I like it, it’s done on wood and cut it myself (have to save). 🙂

Little glass with roses. Oil on table.

I leave a picture also curious in my work, so a cocktail says goodbye when it ends; do the same “A WIDE SMILE”. 😀

I LEAVE YOUR LIGHTS BEHIND.- P. MELITÓN (POETRY IN A PLANE).

Hello my friends.

Today we´ll leave the paint apart and we‘re going to enjoy a little poetry.

I wrote it flying back from New York on my last visit in 2010. Hope you like it.

Greetings to everyone and live art with Artespiritus.

 

I leave behind your golden lights,
aligned golden pearls,
that fills the sky of amber,
small fireflies stops in the air.

I leave behind your walls of glass,
reflections of the past,
walking your streets,
your light and metal towers.

I leave behind my dreams,
shipped in your waters,
reflecting an everlasting lovers,
in your admired nights.

I leave behind my illusions,
hung of your bridges,
stranded in your ports,
forgotten illusions.

I leave behind the love,
love for a city,
unspeakable love,
the love that is true.

I leave behind the sorrow,
of your Twins I remember,
breath the mist,
touch the sky.

I leave behind 3,000 souls,
I´ll always carry within me,
not cover ground zero,
neither will ever forget.

I leave behind a lament,
because that city
is all I feel,
I don´t sin of vanity.

I leave behind New York,
I´ll be back again,
even if not in this life,
I’ll take the sky subway.

– Next stop: NEW YORK CITY!!!

GENIUS OF GENIUSES- “As a day well spent produces a sweet dream, so a life well used causes a sweet death”- LEONARDO DA VINCI.

“I have offended God and mankind because my work didn´t have the quality that it should have had.” – Leonardo da Vinci.

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci *. (1452-1519)

Was an Italian Renaissance polymath: painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer. His genius, perhaps more than that of any other figure, epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the Renaissance Man, a man of “unquenchable curiosity” and “feverishly inventive imagination”.

He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived.

Here you have some of his genius and you know, enjoy life and art, with spirit.

Mona Lisa or La Gioconda-1503/1505

The Last Supper- 1498

The vitruvian man- 1485

RAPHAEL, RAFFAELLO SANZIO DA URBINO (

Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (April 6 or March 28, 1483 – April 6, 1520), better known simply as Raphael, was an italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. His work is admired for its clarity of form and ease of composition and for its visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. Together with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he forms the traditional trinity of great masters of that period.

Madonna Sixtina.

As you can see, Raphael is one of the greatest painters in history, amazing works, amazing life, but he died too young.

Luckily he left these wonders for all of us.

“Thank you Raphael, we know you´re painting the heaven for God”.

P. Melitón.

Blessings…love…and a piece of chocolate. 😉
