Sketches have led to other things.
While here at the pool side coffee bar, I got chating to a guy who saw me sketching palm trees earlier, and asked if he could see them.
It turns out he is a local artist, and was commitioned to produce all the many paintings in the hotel. He paints what he describes as contemporary modern abstract. His paintings contain small clues, which he leaves people to interpret themselves. I was chating to him for ages, and he offered to give me a guided tour of his work, hanging in the hotel. Five floors!
2 1/2 hours later he showed me his temporary art studio, which the hotel has provided him with, as they are gradually refurbishing parts of the hotel, and have commissioned him to do some more paintings to display
He gave me a quick demonstration of how he does them. Once he has an idea he produces a painting really quickly, or allows it to develop. Some of which he signs across them vertically, or horizontally. His signature becoming part of the painting. A really interesting guy.
As Julies spending some time with her friends at the Spa tomorow, He's invited me to join him in his studio tomorrow. And offered to show me and give me some hints on different techniques. I may even have a go myself.
