This time the subconscient makes Donibane to do this painting call "I am going".

Explain it is not what he has to do now. Just take a good look at it and then, use your imagination to think what is going on...

Just a clue "nobody want to be alone" ;-)

Just say, "Thanks for this wonderful years to the one who has been with me and good luck, I will be close. And do not look at your back, just go straight... and be happy.Thanks one more time"

Enjoy it...

Esta vez el subconsciente del artista Donibane le ha hecho pintar un cuadro llamado "me voy".

Explicar lo que ocurre es algo que el artista no hará ahora. Solo hay que mirar muy bien la ilustración y usando la imaginación pensar que está ocurriendo.

Solo una pista "nadie quiere estar solo" ;-)

Y solo una cosa "gracias por estos maravillosos años para aquella persona que ha estado conmigo y que tengas mucha suerte, yo estaré cerca. No mires para atrás, solo hacia adelante, y ser feliz. Gracias una vez más"

Disfrútenlo...

My little son always call race cars as "coche de calelas" so for him I have made this illustration.

What can I say about it?

Go fast and try to have fun what ever you are doing ;-)

"Time monster" is another of my "food for brain" collection.

I dont want to explain the meaning of it or any one of this collection.

 I rather prefer that the visitant take a good look at it and decides what is looking at.

Many people like the surrealism. To me is more than an style, is "Food for Brain" and you have to think about what are you looking at.

This time "fishing in your mind" is the painting that I show you.

To me ART is this... a message, a composition, a color balance...

This illustration is part of the collection of "children books".

Enjoy it ;-)

Why I painting flowers all the time?
That is a good question and the answer is "I have no idea".

Or I have it ... I like the colors, and textures, and the light reflection... this can be an explanation ;-)

Since I was fifteen years old I have been painting flowers, and all kind of them ...

So, here are more examples of the "bodegons" that I have been painting.

After been painting for several years, and after learned how to use the airbrush, the year 1992 was the year of the poster contest.

What does mean?

I do not know if everywhere else this is very commun, but in Basque Country many cities and towns celebrates its aniversaries, or annual parties... sometimes I do not know how to call them.

Anyway, all of them make a poster contest and give to the winner money (not to much, but is ok), so that year I decided to be part of the artist that participate on the contest.

Bilbao Party, Ezkaray, Carnavales Bilbao...

I did not win any of them (I was the second at Ezcaray) but I learned a big lesson the very next year. Do not waste your time trying to make an easy money with your art. Better play to lottery ;-) more chance to win, that is for sure.

If there is a year on my live that I have created huge amount of art, was the year 1987.

I have no idea how many paintings I made, but could be more than a hundred. Painting with acrylics supposed to me paint very quickly, as fast as possible, becouse the paper does not waited for me.

I imagine that been 18 years old was critical on my live... so I expressed myself by painting and painting...

Here are some examples of my work.

Ok, my surf experiencia was very bad (to many big waves at Bakio´s beach) ... but I made this "painting" on my surf board... Do not ask me what I tried to made... to me was always "the ege"... or a kind of it.

Here I was 16 years old and everything that I have on my hands was on risk becouse I wanted to "paint" it... surfboards, bicycles, walls, books... ;-)
