Memories of Morocco

 We are all subject to a chain of events of which we don't have any control. Class trip to Eilat. Two boys infected. The entire class had to be tested, fast test and longer, more precise test. Friday supper cancelled, caught us as we were about to leave. The new normal, nothing is normal. Just ranting, nothing to do with Morocco!

The Cold Wax Academy gave us a homework project,paint 3 to 5 small paintings as a series. I chose Memories of Morocco as my subject/content. 2015 I took a trip to Morocco with my daughter. She was a yoga instructor for the trip. This trip had lasting memories and a pair of stencils that reminded me of the patterns pushed me to this choice.. So my focused intentions were the memories of place,Morocco, limited color palette, use of stencils and masks.

Palette:  Burnt Sienna, Ultramarine Blue, Indian Yellow White,Paynes Gray(my black) and Buff Titanium.
