The lookout

During my latest vacation in Panama, I visited the coffee plantation called Finca Lerida, set in the mountains close to the town of Boquete. It has beautiful gardens and a secluded place to take it all in.

Calypso I


Back from vacation in Panama, I finished a painting that I started there, on a rainy day in Isla Carenero (Bocas del Toro, on the Caribbean side). It rained for 3 of the 4 days that we spent there, which was unexpected at that time of the year.

Finding my voice

"Tropical night".
This pastel painting is a recreation of one of my batik tapestries of long ago. After a workshop with Erica Neumann on finding your style, I decided to re-explore my (almost) abstract side. I'm enjoying the process.

Painted on Wallis sanded paper, 30 x 40 cm.
