Art





I have had the opportunity to show some of my art in a cafe. Its in this little Italian piadina place in a great part of the city, Gracia. This neighborhood is full of artists,individuals,inspiration and creativity. I love this barrio.
The art in the pictures are new prints i have been doing in my art class here. I am learning a new technique called grabado. Its similar to printmaking. We have been experimenting with textures and colors. I take classes from a gorgeous dark-skinned catalan. Her name is Nuria and she is 26 and has this incredible studio space in the old city. She paints but also opens her studio up for classes.She plays great music and wears a white apron.She always has paint on her hands.I have decided i want to be just like her...

You're beautiful and I want your art. Seriously. Please.

When are you returning? As of the 12th, my only plans are to praise the Lord - which means I have tons of time for a trip to Texas!


Love love love you.
