Original Painting Abstract Art Peru, "You Are"

"I've chosen lyrical abstraction for the freedom it allows me to express my feelings, my dreams, my fantasies and my perceptions of reality," confides Peruvian artist Leonidas Zavaleta. For this oil on canvas he creates a colorful, nebulous composition that is inspired by the poetic words of Joselito Fernández in "You Are" (Eres): "You are sun to my days, moon to my nights, rain to my deserts. In my garden you are a beautiful flower, in my sky a star, in my soul, peace. You are the coast to my ocean, a breeze to my heat, warmth to my cold, quietude to my storm, sweetness to my solitude and an end to my intolerance."

Titled "Eres" in Spanish.
