This is a picture of a reflection in a wood. The result is more abstract , so be it! Sometimes the results is not the one you expect, but I am pleased with it. Also is a way of concentrate more in those uncertain moments that we are living! Thanks for having so much material to work with! Stay safe!

The times we are living are difficult. It feels so strange to be in quarantine at home for weeks and weeks. So many people have died with this virus, it is so sad. This piece has been growing day by day, and it represents the terrible virus, but as it developed, I put a sun at the top, which means that we are going to make it , hopefully our life is going to be better!

This magnolia was made from a picture I took of a real one. I think it came out quite good. The magnolias are my favorite flowers in the spring, they are so humble and beautiful!
