What a month! Here it is in 16 photos:
OUTSIDE MY DOOR--
Picture
First sunset on the hill with avocado tree.
Picture
I know they can be horrifically destructive, but I have a thing for leafcutter ants. Guess which one is the soldier?
Picture
Soft leaf and twig round I made on an early morning wander.
Picture
Hard to beat fresh-squeezed mandarin juice from fruit I picked just minutes before.
AT THE OX CART PARADE--
Picture
Beautiful detail of cart and rider.
Picture
I loved seeing all the children involved in the festivities- passing on traditions to a new generation.
Picture
People-watching is one of my favorite pastimes.
Picture
Seems like as good a time as any to have a chat on the phone.
AT THE LOCAL MARKET--
Picture
Bananas and chayote.
Picture
Love the yucca flowers hanging in the background while these two women catch up on local happenings.
Picture
"Here. Try this!" says Grandma.
Picture
A delicious exchange.
IN THE STUDIO--
Picture
My collection of canvases and paints, one week in.
Picture
Detail, work-in -progress.
Picture
Yes, the intense colors in the tropics always seem to barge right into things...
Picture
I spy with my little eye- you! Time to start packing after a productive residency in the tropics. Back to Wisconsin, tomorrow.
Can't wait until next year!!
