"El Gallinero"–An Artists' & Writers' Refuge in Granada

A team from Canal Sur, the Andalusian regional television channel, dropped by my studio on a tip from my neighbors to include me in a program they’re producing on the best, healthiest places to live in Andalusia (that’s Spain’s eight most southernmost provinces, including Granada). Our pueblo, Pinos Genil definitely fills the bill. It has improved physically a lot over five decades, but its people are still the salt of the earth. We have found it an ideal place to live since we arrived here in the fall of 1969. The proof of the pudding is that we never left.  These are the photos Mike took while the television kids were in my studio. Isabel, the presenter, thought it would be fun to interview me while I was painting, so I painted her.
