Casablanca Girls

Casablanca Girls, oil on canvas, 12x24" (30x60 cm.). This oil is one of a series of African women I'm working on these days, based on sketches and photographs I took on my last trip along the African coast in the Fall of 2009. More to come...
Este oleo es uno de la serie de mujeres africanas en las que estoy trabajando en estos dias, basandome en bosquejos y fotografias que tome en mi ultimo viaje a lo largo de la costa africana, en el otono de 2009. Pronto habra mas....

I've recently visited the San Diego Museum of Art. They have a wonderful exhibit called "Dreams and Diversions" of  Japanese woodblock prints. The SDMA has received the donation of more than 400 Japanese woodblock prints, dating from the 1670s to the 1930s. They are so many that they will be exhibited on a rotating basis!
