Book Review The Capillas of San Miguel de Allende

[By Marc Taro Holmes in Montreal, CA] Every so often an inspiring project is brought to my attention. The Capillas of San Miguel de Allende: A Legacy of Faith by Lorie Topinka and Linda Whynman is exactly the kind of sketching narrative that I love to hear about.

Their book is an excellent resource for anyone inspired to try an off-the-beaten-path sketching adventure near San Miguel, Mexico.

I was pleased to get a copy from Lorie, and am excited to give everyone a peek inside.

Some time ago, these two painters began a personal project to visit and paint as many of the local Capillas as possible. They have taken their treasure hunt for these historic brick and plaster chapels and expanded it into an informative guide for other travelling sketchers.

I have to admire their unflagging motivation to explore the area around San Miguel. Its a kind of self-appointed artistic obsession that I always enjoy on my own. Its great to see what other artists latch onto. This kind of painting series is such a great way to learn first hand about a region and its rich cultural heritage.

I feel like the current growth of field sketching as a past-time in North America and beyond is creating a growing interest in this sort of project. Half art book, and half guide book. I hope to see more of these passion projects over the next few years.

The authors showcase their own favorite sketches, collected over months of travelling back roads. At the same time, they give us some historical background and little bit of local color for each of the individual monuments, and most importantly - there are maps! So that other sketchers, history buffs, and visitors to San Miguel can follow in their footsteps and experience these fascinating locations.

Many of the sites look to be half way between restored, and on their way to ruin. Some of these will be brought back into use by the community, but Im sure over time, others of them will vanish. Making this guide is an interesting document of a time and place that may one day be lost.

The book is 95 pages, with dozens of illustrations and photographs. Chapters are divided, like most tour guides, into a one day highlights tour, and shorter trips to specific destinations. As well, it has a most intriguing bonus chapter on Hidden Capillas. Places that are not marked on any map, or visible from roads.

The authors offer a few clues to finding these spots, but I think, for these hidden gems, would-be artist/adventurers would need a comfort level with being lost, a good knowledge of Spanish, and willingness to talk to the locals about gaining access. Perhaps there is a future in the San Miguel sketchers offering tours? Who knows!

You can order the book from Amazon via their Create Space publishing program.

As well, you can find our more about the authors, and the region, at their website: CapillasMA.org .

PYSB Workshop Review 2 Drawing people on stage in Brighton

Brighton’s setting is just magical with the old West Pier ruins as a backdrop on the seafront. The May Festival is a great highlight of the year’s calendar and Rolf Schroeter, Swasky and Isabel Carmona joined the Brighton Fringe Festival with their Drawing People on Stage workshop on the last weekend in May.

There were people to be drawn everywhere, plays in the park, in the street, music in the pub, watercolour portraits with our morning coffee at The Marwood, busy shopping streets, the popular Palace Pier and a bit of rain and thunder too!

We were noticed at our session at The Warren and were treated to free refreshments on the house.

Our venue was the quirky Marwood Cafe where we grew an exhibition on their upstairs lounge wall for the duration of the workshop.

This time instead of a group photo we have a group portrait (done by many hands - thanks to all of you) and I had some fun putting together a portraits video (link here).

What the participants said:

"I learnt loads of techniques which I hope to use in the future"

"[I liked best] the diversity of approaches between the tutors and the individual feedback and help"

"[I liked best] having to sketch in crowded places, something that is outside my comfort zone"

Review More Than 2 Million Naira Made in 3 Weeks on Zarfund!

For the past 3 weeks now, we have been talking more about bitcoin and dollars. Yes! This is the way forward. Digital currency is taking over and it is creating more business opportunities.

Zarfund global investment is one of the best ways to transact on bitcoin to attend financial freedom.

We introduced Zarfund to our readers last 3 weeks and many who have been waiting for an opportunity grabbed it immediately.

Over 200 new investors joined to make our team great.

The first batch of 100 investors has gotten complete two referrals without stress. Yes! The team placed two people under each of them.

The first 3 investors have completed level 3, now in level 4. They made a profit of 0.6BTC $450 (N240,000). The next 30 investors have completed level 2, now in level 3. They made a profit of 0.1BTC $75 (N40,000). The rest 67 investors have completed level 1, now in level 2. They made a profit of 0.01BTC $7 (N4,000)

Now let’s find the aggregate;
N240,000 x 3 = 720000
N40,000 x 30 = 1200000
N4,000 x 67 = 268000
Total = N2,188,000

This is what we have made so far as a team.

If we can achieve this on our gestation stage, then it’s possible to predict what will happen in the next 6months.

However, we can’t claim that all things happened smoothly without any difficulty or challenges. Nothing good comes easily, but your ability to overcome challenges and move on is what grants real success. During the past 3 weeks in Zarfund, encountered serious challenges, some even posed a threat to the entire team. But we were able to overcome them. Below are the measures we took to improve our team.

More Team Assistants
Some who contacted us during the first week on reception were not attended to immediately because we had only two team assistants by that time and the workload was much. They found it had to offer the prompt response to prospective investors.

This problem has been fixed by introducing more team assistants to handle the job. We can now assure you that you’ll get needed assistance on time. They will help you purchase bitcoin and give you our team unique link for registration.

Transparency
Our team administrative activities are very clear and transparent to every member. No underground works and favoritism. E.g On the issue of giving referrals, we have a list of all registered members, their levels, the number of referrals and serial numbers. Referrals are given based on your serial number on the list. With this method, each member can predict when he or she will get referrals.

Zarfund is a Lifetime InvestimentThe benefits of Zarfund are not for a short while, Investors keep earning for life. Apart from the profits you earn when your downlines are upgrading to upper levels, you will also earn the same amount of profits on the monthly basis.
