Recently a "blog reader" ask me to share some of my own work on the blog. I laughed....
"what do you do in Mexico", a frequent question....followed by, "You must paint a lot"....ummm
Each year I diligently pack my supplies and vow that this will be the year that I am prolific......so far...not so much, but I vow to do more. Well, after all, I am pretty busy here.....why just look at the photo's I post.
There comes the day when I settle in and pull the paints out and get to work and when I do, I am heavily influenced by my surroundings.
I love the tattered walls with their multi layers of colors; the narrow sidewalks with trees jutting from street and walkway; the vines that seem to stream from nowhere.
Everywhere I look is an inspiration; some I can capture and others remain illusive, but such is the beauty of art..
The piece I am working on is a street in El Centro that I have walked many times, and yes, the tree is in the street. Perhaps it was once a courtyard?
Am I finished with this....just not sure yet....time will tell.
