Pepe Collado at Guimarães

© José González Collado (painting); unknown author (photo).-----Tomorrow and the day after will be very special days for me. Tomorrow I'll be with my family in Santiago de Compostela. A group of UNKNOWN readers/fans of my work at daily El Correo Gallego organized a meeting as a tribute to me. First time a journalist gets this homage from his readers. We'll meet at a typical restaurant and although only 17 people, I'm sure this event will be very emotive. I'll post more info and photos.------ On Sunday, opening exhibition of my friend Pepe Collado in Portugal, this time at Paço dos Duques de Bragança (Guimarães). Portuguese people will enjoy so much his amazing art. I think our AW friend Alberto D'Assumpção also lives in Guimarães. He'll enjoy Collado's art very much. ------- Upper image: watercolor. Bottom image: Paço dos Duques de Bragança, a beautiful palace (photo taken from Internet)------ Good luck on your exhibition, Pepe! I'm sure you'll get the well deserved success. Also congratulations to Portuguese people: they'll see in real life the art of a huge artist.
