Just to let you know i arrived safely back in the Netherlands!!! What a perfect time it was...still impressed ;)!! So now time for some promised photos of the last days in OBRAS and therefore Portugal!!     Finishing the final paintings And one of the last days I started a new painting...inspired by our trip to the Algarve!    The last week I also worked a lot at night, to be able to finish the paintings.     And the azulejos I made!

But after this working period with the mestre I am more sure then ever that I need to discover a lot more, so now I am even more inspired to develop my ceramic works further!  And another new inspiration : the traditional portuguese flower vases! After this residency I am even more filled with inspiration and ideas! So I am really looking forward to realizing these dreams and developin
