The Beetle

Two things come to my mind when I think of a volkswagen Beettle: the unique noise they make when you start them and my amazing uncle Nano (his name is Hugo, Nano was the nickname my sisters and I gave him when we were kids, don't ask why).

I can't say the Beetle I painted is after my uncle's; for starters his is white, also, he bought his in 1979, brand new, which means the years wouldn't match. However, I do have to thank my uncle for the love I have for these cars. In a sense, they both share the same personality -one of a kind, cool like no other and you can't help but smile when you look at them. 

Burning Forest

Remember how part of the plan I had for the next months was to reconnect with brushes and colors? Some progress has been made towards this project. 

In the past week I have painted a couple of things. Here is the first one.

I have named it “Burning Forest”. Mainly because I feel that if I want to exhibit my work eventually I am supposed to give each painting a name or something to recognize them by.

So here is the first of, I hope, many more.
