Oaxaca-The Year After: A bit more of that feast...

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.

A bit more of that feast...

I wanted to go back and see the finished piece of street art I saw being created last week. It was done and amazing.

The detail work, exceptional.

The door was a jar, so I stuck my head in. There was someone there. "Are you the artist?" "No." I think maybe he was a cook or a waiter. I'm not sure, but I think the place is a new restaurant although I only saw a couple of tables and the room is small, but there is some serious art going on.
