  • Palau de la Musica– Section of the Band

    This is based on a pen and ink miniature, with many elements of fantasy.

  • Waiting for the Concert

    Waiting for the Concert at the Small Hall in the Palau de la Musica, Valencia.

    Continuing with the music and Palau themes, here I use a palette knife to dress the audience awaiting the concert.   The Palau has a small concert hall in the basement.  We listen to some local traditional Valencian music.  Below the painting you will find a link to a video I shot at a local fair with some examples of the squeaky instruments we listened to.  You hear them during the many parades you can see in the city.
