I'm glad you are back. I'm a painter, too, but it's been mostly cold & rainy here in the Seattle area lately (not sunny & colorful), so I look to your site for a little cheer :-)
Thanks for the kick-start, Geninne :-)

Oh, Geninne, you were indeed missed. I thought of you while I was visiting Oaxaca. Not very close to you, I know, but closer than I usually am and in your home country.It was so inspiring to be there, with the color and pagentry of Dias de los Muertos and the warmth of the people. Welcome back.
wonderful Geninne! great experiment :)
¡Hola, Geninne!:
¡Qué bien que has vuelto! ¡Bienvenida! Espero que hayas pasado unos días maravillosos en compañía de los tuyos.
El dibujo de los pájaros es precioso y de un azul realmente alegre y la parte en blanco y negro que hace de marco parece estar hecha de encaje o tallada en madera. Es increíble que consigas esos dos efectos dibujando. Además, en mi opinión, queda muy bien con la foto de tu abuelo.
Muchísimas gracias por seguir compartiendo tu trabajo. No sabes cuánto bien haces con ello.
Que te vaya todo muy bien.

Wow, what a comeback, Geninne! I missed you too!

I found your blog a few months ago, and I continue to be amazed! These two paintings are beyond beautiful. The detail in your work is just gorgeous. I was looking at the frame you put around the paintings and the line work is so intricate and looks wonderful.
I am glad to see you back again....understand that everyone needs a break once in awhile.
Love your work!!!!

Que alegría tenerte de vuelta!! Bienvenida!!!
Besitos desde Guatemala!

Hola Geninne, siempre paso por aquí a maravillarme por tus trabajos y nunca dejo un comentario por mi ingles que es muy malo, pero esta vez me dieron muchas ganas de hacerlo, sobre todo por que vi una palabra que me llamo mucho la atención, que es tu mención sobre tu abuelo Chileno y yo soy Chilena!! y no pude evitarlo, que curioso, a pesar de ser un pais pequeño, siempre alguien lo menciona.
Bueno es maravilloso lo que logras! sobre todo esos detalles hechos a mano como un tallado, precioso!!
Cariños desde Chile - Iquique.
HOLA GENINNE!!!!qué hermosura!!!!!!y qué lindo tu abuelo también!!!besos enormes y qué lindo verte!!!!!
So glad you are back too! I really enjoy your blog and miss it when you are away. Your art and photos are lovely. Thanks for sharing.
Count me in as missing you too! I hope your break was a good and restful one. Welcome back! Now I must get back on and see how Turbo is doing too!
Gorgeous! Wonderful idea, and beautifully illustrated.
Hi, I just found your blog via A Field Journal and am blown away by your creativity and talent! Your work is just amazing :)
Intuía que alguna relación tenías con mi país, por dibujos de fotos en Valparaíso. Cuanta historia en cada persona... Tu abuelo de Chile!!!! Maravilloso!
This is so beautiful.
Wonderful.
I love your work.
Hello, I'm a brand new reader to your wonderful blog. Wow! I adore the contrast of the blue sky and birds against the frame! Just stunning :)
Wowwww increible, pasé visitando este lindo blog y me encontré con esto, yo tambien soy de Santiago de Chile
Saludos
Hola, que lindo tu trabajo!
Y ahí estaba yo, mirando, mirando y todo me gustaba y me movía...y cuando apareció el marco del parajito dije: mira que lindo y los acorns y las florcitas y las semillitas...y luego aparece tu abuelo chileno como yo, así es el tiempo, coincidencias de coicidencias.
te felicito y gracias por compartir tu trabajo, muy inspirador.
What font are you using on your frames, in white? Do you do this lettering by hand? I'd love to see the whole alphabet in caps and smalls. I'm making a dove painting for a friend's new baby, Paloma, and would like to add a ribbon with her name. Many thx!
I love it ! Very creative ! That's actually really cool Thanks.
