a sketch of dolphins at play
what I really enjoyed doing during that two years stay was to have a boat ride as far as the diving dropoff where you can see the white sand and the pitch dark deep meet. it's where you see schools of fish, small sharks which the local folks call ihoy and my favorite, dolphins at play!!

Untitled
from watching the moon
my comfortable old shadow
I've always been fascinated by the moon, not so much with its facts and theories as a heavenly body but rather on how its reflected light illuminate roof tops and tree canopies, creating long shadows on the ground, transforming an otherwise dreary scenery into dreamland :-)It all started when I was ten years old. I saw a painting featured in a magazine, of an evening sky- the moon as the focal point was full, pale yellow, radiant and to my adoring eyes, beautiful. Below the painting was the caption: The Sentinel.

I look at this tree every morning. No, i'm not a tree-hugger nor a tree-feller but I'm looking at it mainly because it is standing right in front of my bedroom window, just barely 10 meters away. Anyway, this sketch was done three months ago. It's still standing there but now with wild vines of cadena de amor covering the trunk and most of the lower branches with green heart-shaped leaves and sprigs of tiny pink flowers. Looking at different shades of green can be relaxing to the eyes but a bit boring so needless to say, it's more exciting now,
