Hola Odette:

Agradecida por tu visita. Aún estoy de vacaciones, ya pronto vuelvo al blog. Pero me di un descansito en casa y vine a verte.

Es un placer conocerte. Tan cerca que estamos. Eres bienvenida cuando quieras venir al maravilloso estado veracruzano.

Fuí a tu página y tu arte me ha gustado. Mucho talento. Gozo cada vez que conozco algo nuevo y es grato conocer tus pinturas.

Seguiremos pues...

Recibe un abrazo soleado.

Graciela B.

Esas piernas rotundas, ese cuerpo entreabierto frente a mis ojos, contra el verde luminoso... Me recuerda que todavía hay sol detrás de esta lluvia cansada que no cesa de caer. Un beso.

Hey Odette,

You finally paid attention to the beautiful faces that gorgeous models have! I have always celebrated your faces, and recently I realised you have forgotten them.
By the way, I like this oil. I rather like these backgrounds in one color, different from the ones you painted one or two years ago, in violets+reds+greens...

Clarice,
Un placer tenerte por aquí... sí, me han dicho que Veracruz es un paraiso

Stein,

De Lirium,
Gracias por tu comentario, yo también opino que menos es más, y quisiera lograr en el óleo lo que estoy haciendo en la acuarela

Darth,
Good to have you here... but I don't understand what you mean regarding my faces, what have I forgotten?

This weekend I went twice to the Royal Academy of Arts to the talks of Mexican Architects.  The first talk on Saturday was by architect Michel Rojkind. It was amazing, I liked very much the friendly and social approach to all of his projects, they are quite innovative and he thinks of people.  He is an excellent story teller and all the public was captured by his talk. He is a people person, and he reflects that in his architecture... the project that impact me the most was the on-site extension of la Cineteca Nacional. I loved this place since I was very young and used to live in Satélite; as I am a film lover remember driving every weekend there. Later I was lucky enough to live in Coyoacan so I travelled there by bike.  I was very impressed by the fact that Rojkind's project involves the whole area of the Cineteca, he includes the Archives in his plan and leaves the old Cineteca building untouched, giving tribute to the history of this old buildi...

A leap of faith

  13 years ago I took a leap of faith and came with my family to London.  I thought it was going to be easy. It was not. I thought that because during my youth I lived in another country, and it was one of the best experiences in my life. That other country was Germany, and since then I longed for Europe, well I confess I still do… because you should know, England is not Europe. Of course this is my very personal view. I was born in Mexico City, a vibrant and chaotic city. Mexico is a surreal beautiful country. When you are abroad you worth it even more. You might wondered then, why did we decide to leave Mexico?  Well, we decided to leave Mexico because my country was becoming very insecure. It was during president Calderon’s failed drug war. Mexico was so violent that we decided to migrate for the sake of our family.  I have been very lucky to be able to travel a lot during my lifetime. When I was a kid, I was two months in China. It was the China of Mao ...
