Second week of april, I’ve spend in a magnificent, more than hundred years old villa in a village of la Orduna, Coatepec. The place, now taken by a civic association of local and foreign artists is known under the name of La Ceiba Grafica and serve for production, education and as artist residencies.

La Ceiba is an enormous tree in the front garden and most of the production is litography and other graphic prints, it s why Ceiba is grafica. The place itself is a wonderful refugee for creation with beautiful surroundings of coffee plantations and mountains full of orchids. I mainly worked with the surrounding garden, plant elements, seeds and house itself. I integrated in my bigger canvas 160x190cm elements from everyday life in the villa. Spacious kitchen with old ustensils and two local ladies grinding and toasting coffee as well as cooking for the artists, our own papayas, eden like gardens around the house and my impressions from the surroundings.

I ve spend a lot of time drawing bromelias that slowly consume the trees leaving it full of flowers together with orchids, and some seeds and plants I ve found around the house. Some other drawings were produced week ago in Museo de Antropologia de Jalapa (Antropological museum) and also in Instituto de Artes Plasticas (Institute of Fine Arts) which invited me to work twenty days in Xalapa.

The results of my residency was shown in Xalapa 14. of April 2016 in an open studio event and later in Bratislava in DOT Comtemporary Art Gallery in July 2016.

I would like to thank Institut of Fine Arts of Xalapa for its support, la Ceiba Grafica for great six days I ve spend in there and Fond pre Umenie, that supported my mexican project from Bratislava. And last not least my friends Gerardo Vargas and Magali Velasco for their help, and chakistes – flys, that dont let me sleep in the night and chachalakas – birds that wake us up during the day.

In March 2016 I’ve spend 20 days in texan town of Corpus Christi. My friend and wonderful painter, Katarina Janeckova Walshe, who lives here with her husband, invited me generously for three weeks artist in residency stay in her house and studio.

Corpus Christi is located on a lagoon and near the sea,so

there is an abundance of birds, fish, and other wildlife. I could spend hours watching water-birds directly from

Katarina’s terrace, where I was painting as well.

I could observe and draw white ibis, white and brown p

elicans, four different kinds

of egrets and herons, all looking for food in shallow waters of the Laguna Madre.

We went as well to a birding place in Port Aransas, on Padre Island, where there lives alligators, roseate spoonbills and other rare kinds of birds.

The terrace with a lagoon view

We decided to make a road trip to west Texas, spending two night in border-town Fort Davis with it’s dramatic history, visiting Marfa, where Donald Judd use to have his studios, which are

now a museum, and spending another

two nights near the ghost town Terlingua, in a trailer-house in the middle of the desert.

Three girls alone in the desert was the subject of the large painting I made after our return

to the coast.

Studio on the terrace in Flour Bluff, Corpus Christi

And than, as well, I painted pelicans, tropical mantis, our dog Raley, and other small stories from

our three

 weeks artist-marriage with Katarina in Texas.

Thank you Katka :).
