Elegua’s Magic Coconut Acrylic Painting
The featured painting is relatively new. It is one of those types of paintings that is obvious to some, but confusing to others. For those not familiar with Santeria, the coconut belongs to Elegua. He is a child saint of Santeria. He is associated with Keys, and Saint Peter. There was a lot of religious syncretism in Cuba. I first became familiar with the child saint, when I was little. My grandma had a little statuette of the fellow in the form of a mountain, with a creepy face. When she blew smoke on it, it would release a sugary...
Lucier Acrylic Painting
The weekend was more or less eventful. The air conditioner required some repairs, so that took a chuck out of the profits. Other than that, things went peachy. The gardens have been loving the rains. One of my sunflowers is with seed. Fish brother did a lot of weeding, and I did some too. The soil should be ready to receive new sunflower seeds. The Mexican Sunflowers have been thriving. The butterflies just love them. In the weekend, I did not get too much work done. I did managed to complete manga page. A couple of days ago, I also...
Blue and Purple Floral in Bronze Background Acrylic Painting
I finally got around to taking a good photo of this floral of mine. I painted this about a couple of months ago. It was done before the bad times. I had just gotten a new fancy book to read.

The land world of the mammals, I do not like so much. Sebastian and Triton were right about the...
Blue Floral on a silver Background
The days have been starting to run together. Mother is quite exhausted, as all. It is very tiring to be worrying so much. Still, she can’t help it because she has a job in the real world. The gasoline is at least pretty cheap. It lasts for almost two weeks because she only has to go out for work. Brother person gets out to the yard every once in a while to clean the pool. It is important to try to maintain it. Once the heat comes back, we can try to spend the plague there. The trees are still...
Floral in Red, Green and Violet Painting
A few days ago, mother helped me finish the final dress. She did the sewing machine part, and I did the hand sewing portion of the doll dress. The attire had an interesting floral pattern. By sewing here and there, I was able to mess with the flow of the pattern. It was an interesting project to do with her. I cannot say about others, but I feel myself lucky to be able to count my mother as a friend. A few days ago, I had a bit of a headache, but the reason for it turned out to be...
