Story with Alvaro castagnet !!!!!!

Here is my story of the first day with Alvaro.
At 9 o'clock this morning we met him and he told us about materials,colors est....est...
The weather was not so good but we were going outside and Alvaro did his first demonstration.
We looked at him with" big open eyes" and when he was finished we started to paint till 1 o'clock
After diner we got to another location and the same story.
I must say Alvaro is a very friendly and funny man,full of jokes.
Here are the first photos,

- 2 watercolor paintings I made today,

- a photo from Alvaro with me
-you see all the participants
Tomorrow we must be there at 9 o'clock and we start again,
I am so happy because I think that Alvaro gives some people the power and the energy to paint with another insight,
I embrace you all
