Wednesday, November 1, 2017

I think this was the longest hiatus on my posts here. I can't believe the last one was almost 3 months ago.I have been posting on my Facebook  profile though.I have been travelling, painting... 

Well, a lot has been  happening but I will try to catch up posting some  news.

It will be random without chronological order. 

 

Candelaria Esplanade Sandra Nunes oil on linen 40x60 cm

It's been a real treat plein air painting at these renewed parts of the city. The Worldwide Paint Out this year was a great opportunity to capture the atmosphere of this historical site downtown.
