Painting by Gisa David
I just returned home from an amazing trip to Bisbee, Arizona. The CBJ Flamenco Ensemble performed in the ‘For the Love of Music’ Series on Saturday, March 27th & Sunday, March 28th. I love Bisbee and it is always such a joy visiting and performing there. I was very privileged to cross paths with a very talented artist: Gisa David – acupuncturist & painter. She kindly took some images of the concert on Saturday evening and painted a wonderful piece inspired from the performance. I am honestly beside myself. The painting is absolutely beautiful and I’m honored that she would include me in her artistry. Thank you Gisa.

Thank you once again to Gisa David for the wonderful images and beautiful painting. What a fabulous and amazing time I had in Bisbee. Thank you to the Bisbee Woman’s Club and ‘For the Love of Music Series’ for having the CBJ Flamenco Ensemble. It was an honor.

I was fortunate to meet Pat Pollock Rhoads, an illustrator of bilingual children’s books. She kindly allowed me to snap some shots of her brief sketches of the artists during the CBJ Flamenco Ensemble Performance at Bisbee Woman’s Club on Sunday afternoon. Thank you so much to Pat for her kindness, as well as, Josephina and Joseph. It was such a wonderful pleasure to visit with the three of you after the performance.
