As with the last March Stagekids Production, "Seussical the Musical", this time I was asked again to work on the poster for the upcoming show "Little Mermaid" on January, an invitation that I was glad to accept.

The result seen above will be used as poster for the show.

When you know, you know...

If you love South Beach so much as I do, please join us this Saturday at 1PM, when we'll be conducting the last beach cleaning of the year with the group organized by Kit Walters and the "Adopt a Beach" initiative by the Alliance for the Great Lakes.

It takes a little effort but it is one that brings a BIG result.

Saturday, November 17th at 1PM to 3PM.
South Beach Parking Lot
Port Washington, WI

Hope to see you there :)

Getting there! (I hope)

Almost done with this one. A lot more to go... a lot more to learn yet, but keeping going, going and enjoying the journey.

Time will say.

Fall Harvest

October has been a really good and productive month I can say.
So far I finished painting...

I started the lighthouse on Chicago's Navy Pier which will be my humble midwest style homage to one of my favorite american painters_ Edward Hopper and his painting "The Long Leg" (click here to see it). 

So if you know someone that likes lighthouses as much as I do and would like "to spend a little for Christmas" in order to have one of them hanging at home, please send them my way, it would be deeply appreciated it. Otherwise, you can see some of my work at Big Apple Bagels Cafe on Grafton, where thanks to Joe Wu I am hanging some stuff there too until the end of the year.

Oh here we go...

Yesterday we changed the time, which it means that now I have a 4 hour difference with Uruguay (from the only 2 hours difference we have the rest of the year before here and there the change is made), which it makes the communication a little bit tight and also means that by 5PM is already getting dark.

Today as I am leaving for work, above is how I found my car and outside. Have to say I can never be ready for winter but I guess here we go.
