Cusco, Peru’ ! / While walking in Cusco a few days ago I met this little girl, Flor, and her sister Yolanda ! I had already taken a picture of them last year ” Flor y Yolanda ” and when I showed them a copy of the photo.. they were so impressed that they asked me to take more pictures. This is just one of the many I took ! She is so confident and loves to be photographed !!! I love this picture for the way she poses here, the way she smiles, her spontaneity.. and the beautiful contrast of colors !!!

Acrylic on Acrylic board. By Kyle Bultman, aged 11. Exploring acrylic painting with some of my students. Kyle used an online image as reference. I helped him with details, as he is just starting out in drawing and painting. In painting the image, we followed a very exacting regime, essentially adopting/adapting the ‘Flemish’ technique as closely as possible. A bit ambitious perhaps, but the students are ‘learning’ and the technique seemed to require less ‘tidying up’ and fixing. The painting in progress/ grey toned ‘underpainting’: Finished

I watched a PBS [Public Broadcasting Network] TV Special years ago on Japan’s National Treasures. One episode was on Kabuki, the stylized dance of Japan. The cast is still all male from tradition. The national treasure was a dancer that specialized in the female geisha parts. He had been trained since childhood and was passing his craft on to a new generation. My Geisha is not beautiful, but I have tryed to capture the drama and color of a wonderful form of theater. Here’s a good youtube video that shows what an expressive art form Kabuki is.
