Persistence

Dancing with Ghosts

One of my favorite paintings from the paintings I did based on our trip to Cuba was accepted by the Musuem of Northern California Art (MONCA) for its show for northern California women artists called Persistence.  The show ran from late May through July 2018.  We saw this lovely woman at a Senior Center we visited in Havana.  I thought that she was beautiful and, though dancing with the rest of us, it seemed she was really dancing with her memories.

Memories of Cuba

Last year we took a wonderful trip to Cuba.  We spent 12 days on a "people to people" exchange, touring the country and visiting artists studios, senior centers, historical landmarks, day care centers, fishing villages, museums and dance and music venues.  The following paintings are faces and places from this fascinating country that touched me in some way.
