Greece
30cm x
50cm
acrylic on mdf board
Glaros is Greek for seagull. When painting
this picture I had quite a gathering of local people beside me to follow what I
was doing. I had the owner of the boat, his wife, some neighbours and passersby,
several local children, a dog that had adopted me for the day.... Halfway
through the morning a lady, who lived in a house just behind where I had set up
my ease , came out with her two daughters to set up a table and four chairs with
coffee and freshly baked cakes - such wonderful hospitality!
