Top Square Chicos Print

I love to record daily life wherever I go. I'm often in a square, shop or bar watching the world go by. These chicos meet up in a square in the small Spanish town of Alhama de Granada. They have been doing this for many years, every single day to exercise, to discuss life, news, politics and of course football. I have spoken to them, some have been to school together, some have done national service together, they are all neighbours and they range in age from 70 to 92, every so often heartbreakingly there is one less chico. I hope that people will feel the same atmosphere that I feel when I try to capture the scene. I love to paint using watercolour and I love to create digital art on the iPad, I was first inspired to try this medium watching Hockney on the iPad, I find the flexibility of the technology amazing.
