Ok, here is a great visite.

This time to the Chillida-Leku, the place where the basque artist Chillida has a Museum.

What a very special place. It is locates in Hernani, close to San Sebastian, the museum has a green field and a "caserio" (basque house) with some of Chillida´s work.

The scultures are all around. And all kind of them, differente sizes and styles.

Meet the work of an "universal" artist like he was is something that I really enjoyed visiting. The atmosphere, the air, the sound, all is art there.

And here is a photo or digital alteration( at top) of this great visite that I have done and this is how I see his art... part of the nature.

If you have the opportunity, please visite the Chillida-Leku  ;-)

"Parisflee" by Donibane · 2008 http://donibaneleku.nireblog.com/post/2008/08/08/parisflee-by-donibane-2008 http://donibaneleku.nireblog.com/post/2008/08/08/parisflee-by-donibane-2008

"Parisflee" is one of my new generations paintings.

Abstract photography with surrealism... or surrealism with abstract style... who knows...

What I try to do is find another style, something totally different and this time I am very close to it.

As an artist, I dont want to be making always the same... find new languajes, new ways into the art field... this is what I really like.

Innovation... born and die... to be free to create... ;-)

"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.

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...

Enjoy it ;-)

"Juanjo", my Grandfather · 1984 http://donibaneleku.nireblog.com/post/2008/08/06/juanjo-my-grandfather-1984 http://donibaneleku.nireblog.com/post/2008/08/06/juanjo-my-grandfather-1984 Aitite Juanjo Grandfather

This photo was taken at Lodosa, Navarra, Spain and the year, more or less, 1984 (but I am not very sure).

I have been making some digital alteration with it. It was with color, so I thought that maybe change it to B&W will be better. And this photo "talks" to us exactly how he was...

What I remenber about my Grandfather "Juanjo" is how much he liked to walk and the way he play with the "words"... always changing the meaning of them... It was funny.

He had seven children, so maybe this kind of "game" changing the meaning of the words was something to keep them busy thinking what he was trying to say.

Whereever you are, I still remenber you "aitite Juanjo" ;-)

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.

Ok, to be a designer and an artist is fantastic, but travelling is what I really like the most.

Travelling you can make art too.

Take photographies, learn different art techniques, visit museums or art galleries, architecture or just meet new cultures and people.

This time I share with you my travel to Bali and Indonesia showing you some photos.
