overview

I also brought a few of my small vases from the special edition, 19 cm. high, still a few available!
(vase, book and ceramic cover 375 euro, only the vase 275 euro)

And during the presentation I am working outside on the paintings, that still need to be finished, before leaving @ last days

Working with a beautiful view

All the grasses have already turned white, it's very dry and hot!

My newest roses

Golden landscape, 30 x 40 cm.

In these photos you can clearly see the deep scratches, that I make as a drawing, before painting my azulejos. Mestre Xico taught me, but I never realized how strong this scatching is in Redondo tradition!

Photosession of my newest vases in the patio at the fundacao
(I have been wanting to do this for years!).

All shapes of the vases were drawn by me and made by Mestre Xico

Presentation of James Westwater at the old trainstation
