This is a mix media piece. I started making 4″x4″ squares, some felted and some hooked, putting them on thick 4″x4″canvas, suddenly inspiration came and I put the together, I like the effect. It is like when you see in a kaleidoscope, colors in different shapes. My son Miguel made the frame, so now it is a piece to enter maybe in an exhibition, who knows. I enjoyed a lot working with the different textures.

The sea, the shore, always in my work, I really miss the sea! This came out like an unruly ocean, the water is of different tones, the wind blows…. I never know where they are going. Loved to make it!

One afternoon the sunset was so beautiful in the woods in our home, that I went directly to my studio and reproduced it. I think it is very accurate, but we cannot do better that nature! I found a cool metal frame, so that was it!
