UAN CARRILLO was in the  Saint Fernando Academy, but the academy's spirit wasn't in him. When he was young, he learnt craftsmanship and other techniques which restrict the inspiration and the freedom to paint in canvas. Nobody can show the colours of you personality, the chromatic emotion or the character. Nobody can show the obsession which the artist need purge. In a college, said Carrillo, nobody can learn to remember     last time or to invent the future, anybody can't learn that creative melancholy with blues and browns: like sky and earth.     Carrillo alone, le  arnt to give ligth and color on the volumes, on the canvas, he le arnt  to pursue the invisible and     mysterious. He was painter because he had got a therapeutic need to escape from his life, which he didn't like, to other     where the colors are this friends and he pursues the beauty opposite to mediocrity.

                                

    “ My art, he says, is a cry that I haven't learnt ”.From these limits between conscious and unconscious

                                   is the creative mist. “ My inspiration, he says, has got a pathological point of view. The colors have saved me ”.
