[Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] Tico Torres treats his art the same way he does
music. ``I kind of delve on in,'' says the musician from his home in
Jupiter, where he lives with his wife, Maria, and son Hector. ``I see a clear canvas and then kind of let my mind flow. That's the
wonderful thing about art. It's the most spiritual creative outlet --
and you can't get arrested for it.''
Torres, dabbling since he was 5, will show a retrospective of his work watercolors, sculpture, ceramics and more. Favorite subjects are people rather than inanimate objects. ``I like tasteful nudes. I'll paint from photographs or use actual models.'' Don't think he listens to rock when he creates: ``I like a lot of jazz
and classical music when I paint. It's a must -- there's less rhythm to
it.''
Another nice thing -- with art, Torres can sit down,
unlike when he plays with Bon Jovi, with whom he has been jamming since
1983. The Jersey boys will embark on a yearlong tour in January,
promoting their latest,
We Weren't Born To Follow.At 56,
Torres is starting to feel the creakiness set in. ``Performing is very
much like sports,'' he says. ``You have to keep muscles in shape.'' Even if there is pain -- Torres has often played through colds as well
as a herniated disk -- you keep going. That's rock 'n' roll.
``Tickets aren't cheap anymore,'' he says. ``We give fans their money's worth.''
The
exhibit goes from 5-10 p.m. Saturday at the MAC Art Group, 2727 NW
Second Ave., Miami. Torres will be on hand from 7-10. An after-party
follows at 11 p.m. at Louis Bar. All proceeds benefit the Tico Torres
Children Foundation.
