GRANDMOTHER AND CHILD IN THE MARKET IN PANAJACHEL,

GRANDMOTHER WATCHING A CHILD WHILE HER PARENTS SELL THEIR FRUIT AND CHILES IN PANAJACHEL, GUATEMALA, MY OLD HOME. QUOTE BY OCTAVIO PAZ, THE GREAT MEXICAN POET Beyond happiness or unhappiness, though it is both things, love is intensity; it does not give us eternity but life, that second in which the doors of time and space open just a crack: here is there and now is always.

Great imagery, Michael!!!

Michael Forbus
Artist Reply: Steve, thank you, it was always a vast swath of colors and beauty at the markets in Guat. They moved the market daily to a new village around the lake. All the villagers dressed somewhat the same and the children dressed as their parents. Very industrious children, they always helped their parents with the commerce. And always so quiet for so many people. They spoke in whispers. My gratitude to you, Steve.

Great digital painting , Michael !

Michael Forbus
Artist Reply: My gratitude to you Malou and I find your work fascinating. I have let birds adopt me for years. While living in Florida recently, my back yard looked like the rainforest and singing all day and talking and screeching. I had to soundproof my studio. Thanks so much for your comments and your fine work. Michael
