Back in the Mudroom…

What a time warp…..swimming in the deep blue ocean one day, wearing flip flops to the beach…..next day, down jacket, boots and snowshoes…..brutal i tell you!

I hate to rub it in, but boy did we have a fabulous time in Cuba! +30 every day almost, the resort was amazing, spacious and beautiful. blip-1-31

We did do some exploring and spent 2 nights in a lovely casa in a little fishing village, Gibara, about 1 hour away. Here are some images from there:

the building are so colourful…even in this place where there was so much damage done during hurricane Ike, in 2008.

I did a bit of modelling while i was there…..NOT….this was Terry’s favorite statue….and it was just outside our Casa…definitely more attractive than the soldiers with guns!

Back at the resort, i managed to try out my new traveling art supply kit….it worked really well!

And so now it’s back to reality, and into the mudroom – all my glazes froze over the winter, so today i had to sieve 7 of them. This is probably my least favorite job – so messy, cumbersome and just a big fat pain in the arse!

Spring cleaning is next on the agenda and back into full production! Thank god i have many images to look at to remind me of the warmth.
