The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

You can find my music on Jango (World & latin - Worldbeat) and at iTunes and most online stores.

You want colors?

The colors of the buildings I walk by everyday continue to capture me.  And just to the left, this window's companion door.  I'm not sure of the architectural style, but is has kinda a deco vibe....
And the colors continue throughout the city.  Love the green detail just above the window.
No doubt seeing red in his dreams at night.....
Hotel Verde?
Orange you impressed?
And a final update on the building from last week. Too tame for me.
I woulda gone with the turquoise.

The grilll over the door and window seem to me to be copies of a Frank Lloyd Wright design.

You may be right,but he had so many designs. I couldn't find an exact copy, but close.
