Once back, safe and sound from my portrait painting workshops in France, I started the preparations for my show “portraits and landscapes” here in the village, in August. The titel will be: “Portraits of Chelva”. Landscapes and Plain-air paintings of the Chelva surroundings. Also a number of portraits of local people, from our weekly live-model sessions in my studio. I brought some 40 paintings to the frame maker.
The show is open during the week of the “fiestas” in august in La Ermita de Santa Cruz. So if you happened to be around…
Portraits and landscapes. Message from after the exhibition.
The interest has been enormous. And I can be very satisfied because all the works are sold except for two. I did not expect that.
The portraits have gone to the corresponding owners and the landscapes have also found their place.
I would like to thank the municipality of Chelva and the Fenix Troyana for their cooperation. I am also very grateful of the way in which we have been received and included in the village. We feel at home in this small but powerful community.
Wow.. I’m so excited to come around and see what you ‘ve got. I’m very much interested in the portraits of local people. I really look forward to seeing your exhibition. Do keep us posted.
