Life is not measured
by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments
that take our breath away. The artist's systematic visualization
of a new-innovative contemporary communication outflow,
is unquestionably the Heartbeat's heart and soul. Previously
designing this worldwide-oriented concept, inspiring
an entirely revolutionary and powerfully positive attitude
towards the on-going art scene, Antonio Pessoa, once
again, shows up as the perfect reflexion of his reputation,
by suggesting with contagious determination and enthusiasm,
a brand-New Age of art-public intercommunication, aiming
at empowering the mutual relationship precisely between
art, artists, gallery owners, art scene in general and
the gigantic community of art lovers, art collectors,
media, worldwide public. What else could actually be
more exciting and new than this pro-life, pro-art, pro-future
and pro-global communication striking futuristic concept,
a truly innovative approach for even greater dynamic
flexibility directly concerning this art-public interactive
universal togetherness? Here we go again, so let's propose
a toast to the Heartbeat's larger-than-life divine inspiration,
heroic epic Project visualising a New Era of intimate
closeness between art and public! Limitless possibilities,
now that everything seems to come so easily, the artist's
secret to living successfully, feeling and acting by
the passionate rhythm of his heartbeat. The mindset
two by two dance "get-to-it-iveness" and "stick-to-it-iveness",
creates the larger than life action super positive mood,
all he actually needs to move him towards entrepreneurial
artistic freedom, and in so doing his blazing desire
for daily creativity keeps on accumulating new concepts
and inspiration flow for future awesome oeuvre. A New
Year is upon him, and once again the almost industrial
stimulating studio art production is in full swing,
pestering the artist to slim down, starting a brand-New
Era, a better phenomenon and inspiring star. Antonio
Pessoa didn't just get lucky but instead was proactive
within his life as opposed to simply reacting to things
as they occur. How does that work? Positive Hearbeat
leads to positive feelings, these feelings lead to fantastic
emotions, this striking super emotional flux promote
amazing inspiration, finally this magical inspiration
creates supreme lifestyle and artistic outcomes! Antonio
Pessoa's amazing capacity to make art public show up
to express flat-out unbarred flipped out excitement
,throughout the past recent years got him in a very
happy spotlight, identifying him as an important symbol
among contemporary top artists. His Heartbeat seems
to be the key component of intentionally causing his
wild happy attitude to naturally bring smashing results
into everyone's life. I cannot stress this point enough!
Almost telepathically communicated to the worldwide
art lovers community, expressing through art awe and
wonder, he is increasingly bound to systematically experience
this enthusiastic public effect on his overall worldwide
reputation level. Heartbeat's overwhelming force, more
than the artist's intelligence, skills, talents, money,
relationships, hi s fabulous collaborators team, reputation,
you name it...has been and it definitely is, his internal
powerful tool just to get the whole job done and most
importantly what actually takes to make his Oeuvre absolutely
achieve the now on-going contemporary smashing new line
and its global recognition. Creative visualization has
been Pessoa's main faith and persistence provider, for
all I know. The art studio veteran surely knows by now
that following through without a plan and thoughtful
action, means nothing but helplessness. Thereby, no
wonder Antonio Pessoa, among the thousands of artists
I know, he stands out prominently because he has made
a success of getting what he wants out of life. He is
successful in art studio performance, in his career,
in his personal life and in leading a stimulating adventurous
life and exciting projects. This is the secret and many
people know it. He knows that the power to direct himself
wherever he wants to go in art and life, is provided
by his striking Heartbeat influence, energy and unbreakable
flux, systematically empowering motivation, solid beliefs
and cultivating burning imagination. The Heartbeat's
law of attraction is not a new idea in the artist's
daily rituals. It has always been there throughout his
feverish art action times...in the continuous process
of managing his professional and personal life commitments
with the sudden decision taking skills and the miraculous
ways he always indeed did manifest attaining his dreams,
one by one, step by step...as new brilliant ideas and
concepts kept on popping up in his mind and in his intuition.
Years of intensive training has shown Antonio Pessoa
that brainwaves not only provided insight into his mind
and body, but they could manage to stimulate him to
such an extent to actually enhance artistic performance,
bringing about a large variety of mental states and
emotional reactions for the incredible benefit of great
creativeness. When Pessoa comes up with an artwork such
as Heartbeat, it's once again quite obvious he is unquestionably
climbing up the hill of the super exploring multiple
magical possibilities of mind power and very specifically
emotional intelligence. And why is he so much involved
into this interesting sort of experiences? Actually,
the answers to this question are quite simple once we
fully come to understand the artist's current challenges
in agenda. The whole scene concerning his life has become
indeed a complex and rather exciting chess composition
in which checkmate is definitely not an option whatsoever
and the "Knight" is not supposed to resign
even when the situation apparently looks hopeless and
the going gets somewhat tough. Heartbeat and exact timing!
What most of us aren't quite yet aware of is that Pessoa's
public image has little or nothing to do with the real
picture of the artist's private life ,which is actually
a fascinating constant stream through the Universe's
all possibilities accelerated learning and sharing wonderfully
mysterious "Wondertopedia"! It seems Pessoa
these days only shows his latest Oeuvre to very few
people. Not anyone is actually allowed to visit his
holy Studio 7,let alone his Studio 1,where most of the
interesting things really happen. Therefore, Heartbeat,
acrylic on watercolor paper, Antonio Pessoa 2008,might
as well be a nice unexpected surprise or even an entirely
unique revelation for most of his closest friends and
the extra regular curious cats, such as Ian Dadley,
always in his well-disguised effort in order to show
not too much interest, his traditional attitude to helplessly
keep the artist underpriced. Basically enjoying his
highly productive semi-solitude, the art studio worm
keeps on painting life itself, with the neo contemporary
vision approach which is unquestionably changing on
a weekly basis, if you ask me...definitely always for
better, signing his artworks with the typical detachment
of someone who doesn't feel the urgency to herald his
own supreme greatness, and giving his paintings the
titles always faithfully based upon his deepest beliefs.
Remarkable accuracy! In the meantime, as time goes by,
the after midnight express is always available downtown,
where nothing really important seems to be happening,
however - in particular when after a pleasurable Heartbeating
creative working day, when he can't help feeling a bit
stale and in need to liven up his soul and inspiration
a bit and for a while- it turns out to be the perfect
place at the right time with the wandering crowd...to
break with the delicious routine and get that creative
something back on the track and right on time. Antonio
Pessoa's Heartbeat is essentially a universe of endless
interesting amazing possibilities, where art and life
coexist all together, as a family of dynamic concepts,
intuitively aiming at approaching world public for an
apotheosis celebration of art expression and universal
communication. Heartbeat represents the soul of Studio
1, The New Era, the artist's updated outlook of the
basic essentials of what the worldwide role of contemporary
art expression must be, particularly in times of general
doubt and emotional - conceptual fragmentation, in a
world where the urgency to achieve a global strong focus
on a truly solid catalog of new values, perception,
ideals and most important of all, cultural togetherness
at last check turns out to be a Must top of the list
number one priority, among the worldwide art lovers
vibrating community.
