a few pictures from farrera
Now that I am back home to my own computer, here are a few photos from my time at the Centre D'Art I Natura in Farrera de Pallars, Catalunya, Spain.
This is a view of the mountains, with the village of Farrera to be seen at the far right of the photo. All the buildings are constructed with native stone, and seem such an organic part of the landscape.
This is the view from my room, looking out at my balcony and the steep hillsides opposite. I spent a lot of time with this serene view.
The view from our studio window.
I took this while I was on a long hike up above the village.
Another shot taken on a hike above Farrera.
And finally, a group shot taken one evening before dinner. Lluis, the director, as at the far left, next to Enriqueta (from Catalunya,) Amr (from Egypt,) Marina, myself and Lynne (the other American who arrived mid-way through our stay.)
It's great to be home, back into my comfort zone, with new energy for my work. But I do miss this beautiful place where I spent most of the past month. It was truly inspiring in many ways.
To see more photos and commentary, please visit the blog of my friend Marina Broere, who was with me on this trip. ¶ 12:55 PM
