New Year - ready to paint

It is time to start painting again. After long time cleaning and organizing the atelier, I am ready to paint.

Lichia in my back yard

It is the first time the Lichia is giving fruits. I am anxious to see all fruits red like is suppose to be.

The lychee (Litchi chinensis, and also known as the leechi, litchi, laichi, lichu, lizhi) is the sole member of the genus Litchi in the soapberryfamily, Sapindaceae. It is a tropical and subtropical fruit tree native to Southern China and Southeast Asia, and now cultivated in many parts of the world. The fresh fruit has a "delicate, whitish pulp" with a "perfume" flavor. Since this perfumy flavor is lost in canning, the fruit is usually eaten fresh.^[2]

Studio - Atelier - Fowers

One of the best therapy for me is gardening. I love to see my garden full of flowers and fruit trees. It lift up my soul.

View from the studio

While working I can enjoy the view and the sunset show every day.

Bougainvillea in my front yard at studio

Different authors accept between four and 18 species in the genus. The plant was classified by Europeans inBrazil in 1768, by Philibert Commerçon, a French botanist accompanying French Navy admiral and explorer Louis Antoine de Bougainvilleduring his voyage of circumnavigation.

Sunset - View from my studio - the natural beauty of Brazil

I always feel very blessed to have a new sunset everyday from my studio.
The nature is perfect. I am glad to be able to enjoy the beauty that the nature offers me, freely.

This picture was taken from Maura, my sister, who lives in France; it was when she came to visit me last year. I really enjoy the new place I am living now. This is the view from my house / studio.
