Snack time

I prepared a snack for us and I liked the colors so much I decided to paint it before we ate it...

Another vacation painting, this time is Panama City's Las Bovedas.

Isla Iguana I

Another Panama painting, this time Isla Iguana off the coast of Pedasi, on the Pacific side. A coral island with white beaches, birds, hermit crabs and, of course, iguanas. Lovely!

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.
