Not so much work for the past couple of weeks. Well, personal work, because I have had the typical work at the university for a semester end. Just the daily sketches.
Teacher-artist, something common for many artists. It's hard to balance work in both sides. Since last year, I have had the chance to keep my work as a teacher and as coordinator of an academic area, and my personal work as an artist. Anyhow, there are times when the academic work tend to gain weight over the counter part.
I like my work as a teacher. I have been teaching for more than 30 years now. I started to teach before I could consider myself an artist. But the academic work have increased in time and importance. It doesn't mean that the art work is not important, but, for the time being, the academic work is first.
Non the less, the work continues. I will be showing with my wife next year in August (paintings). I would like to have a solo exhibition, but I haven't found the place, yet. And I'm preparing work for a solo exhibition for 2016, when I will be celebrating 30 years of our arrival to San Luis and 30 years as a professional artist.
