    Fanny Price is one of my Humans, I have decided to create a series on my  Humans , this is inspired by HONEY , which is one of my favourite daily views .Jane Austen a keen observer of human nature       Fanny Price Is   a character in Mansfield Park a novel by Jane Austen , it is a social satire. There is a section of the book in which Fanny disapproves of and refuses to participate in a play that her cousins and neighbors are putting on at home for their own amusement. For this part of the story to make the least bit of sense to a modern reader, one needs to understand that this particular choice of home theatricals would be the modern equivalent of a group of teenagers voting to have a wild, high-risk party in their strict parent's house while said parent was out of town.

Small paintings Small dimensions for me are the hardest to paint , I find it so hard to fit everything in a small space so I have to edit , which is the hardest part . So what happens is that I end up by loving them so much  that these paintings are for me the hardest to sell,  People prefer to buy the  bigger ones , in a way it suits me fine , this way I am able to savour them longer .   This is a small selection of some of the paintings , they are all mixed media. They are from diferent years but they all share the same size ,25 cm by 15cm or in inches 9.8" by 5.9".               

So I have finally decided to have a blog , I have had a certain resistance but I do enjoy certain blogs and it is certainly a way of showing what I up specially to the people that are not on facebook . I have a Portuguese blog and now one in English , I shall try to have the same stuff on both but repetition always bores me , so we shall see. This summer i went to the North of Portugal and pent a week doing bee wax encaustic , this studio was envisioned by Belkiss also an Artist , which I enjoyed tremendously and here are some photos.~           In this photo I am with fellow Galizian Artist Seara
