I recently went overseas with my son to visit my Papa in Spain. After lunch my Papa would go and have his routine siesta. This would be the time I would take myself up to the top floor of his village home, open a very small window and let the cold winter air come in while I either painted the distant snow cap mountains or paint a still life with objects that I found in my Papas 500 year old home. When I got home I felt the urge to continue to go into my studio and continue the still life stories. These paintings are a refection of my journey.
