Watercolour I - Fairy Days

Fairy days. 2013 (West Cork)

Calling for exhibitors: Answered!

"Ithaca. 0mi - Destination unknown" was looking for a place to be shown and after all I am pleased to say that it will take place in Pinner during September.

At the moment, I keep trying to increase the amount of miles of Ithaca as it's a long journey to it, homever the one thousand miles journey begins with the first step, and a long time ago the journey begun so now it is all about keep moving. 

It is not an easy target but surrealist landscapes always find the way.

Stay safe and sound!

As everything in this life this project started a long time ago and it is not until the time goes when we can see the real origin of it. 

Years ago I did a painting project called Lost Places which was all about hidden places in very touristic cities, I have never been worried about connect the painting with the city as that could change the whole idea.

Lost Places was about the joy of look for details that no-one has noticed, sometimes we would be right, some others... well, some others thousands of people have seen them before but still, the joy of discover them makes us feel special.  

Despite, I have been seeing this paintings during my degree, at home, in the portfolio, everywhere... Nevertheless, It was not until now, after I have spend a year far away from them, when I noticed the connection of those figurative landscapes with the abstractive ones that are in my mind now. 

I hope you all find the origin of your ideas.
