This 2016 painting is an idea inspired by a letter Jim Morrison sent to a young painter (T. E. Breitenbach) telling him what themes he was interested in to do the "An American Prayer" album cover. I started the painting in 2006 after reading the Jim Morrison biography by Stephen Davis and did not see the Jim Morrison Triptych by Breintenbach until finishing my three paintings. However the result did not convince me and ten years later I decided to remake the work, starting with this canvas. If you see the painting of T. E. Breitenbach (my painting would be the center panel) you see he is more attracted to a figurative gothic style influenced by Hyeronimush Bosch and Peter Bruegel the Elder. On the contrary my main reference comes from Jackson Pollock drippings, especially his work "Blue Poles". And as Pollock I concive painting as a happening and in an existentialist sense of living where the act of painting is the most important thing. Therefore I use a liquid acrylic paint to do a drip painting but with a more figurative intention. In fact I break the homogeneity of all-over painting (where it would fail to treat the top differently from the bottom and the left than the right), that Pollock usually does, in order to recuperate the space of figurative art and stablishing an heteregeneous structure where the viewer can recognize shapes from the real world. The acrylic paint is cracked on the sun side (at the top) as the dried land at noon. The painting is signed and dated on the front. This painting is shipped rolled in a extra strong tube.

Fernando Rodríguez Salas (Barcelona, 1983.) was graduated at University of Fine Arts in Granada in 2005 after studying Graphic Design in Middlesbrough (UK). Fernando started working as a Graphic Web Designer in Madrid but later he was attacted by acting and he started to took part in plays, short films and commercials. At this point Fernando explain: " It doesn't matter any medium I use, wathever acrylic, watercolor, marker or graphite, the most important thing is the experience of the moment and the search of the impulse to react to a stimulus, These two princples I found them out when I worked as an actor in Madrid; and in this way, I can start with an idea in mind but I change it, driven by my instinct, in order to come upon new findings." His last exhibitions were at the Affordable Art Fair in Milan and at Van Gogh Art Gallery in Madrid, where he showed part of the Dark Paintings series.
