IBIZA SPRING PAINTING. March 2022.

Acrylic on wood 20x18cm.

Hi Steemians,
little by little I´m finding time to paint a little more lately.
It was a friends birthday yesterday and I made her a painting while I was stuck at home with Covid and feeling fine a couple of weeks ago.
The idea of this painting is to praise her good work she has been developing over the past year and a half managing a Local Land Bank on Ibiza island. She connects people who have land they don´t use with people who look for land to cultivate. They agree on long time leases that works well for both parties.
In the process she also took on some land for another project called the Herbal Hay, where she plants super food hay for horses. Usually here on the island there is only regular hay and people who train horses need to import the food from abroad and now she is in year two of making this happen. In the painting I wanted to illustrate her dog Bess and the different varieties of plants she is planting in this project. Read more at : https://www.herbalhay.com/

I didin´t remember to take pictures of the process, but here is the end result.

Best Wishes to you all.
