Incredible artist Marcio Diaz

'Sunflower Dance'


'Spring is in the Air'

'Ladybug'


'The Red Barn on the Hill'


I just had to share these INCREDIBLE paintings by Marcio Diaz,  a Nicaraguan-born painter who now lives in Seattle and had a booth at the arts festival here in my little town!
I got to chat with him for a few minutes and what an interesting artist!  (also got to brush off my spanish and tho a lot rusty, I didn't do too bad:-)
Both he and his wife were very nice and didn't mind a bit when I couldn't find the right words in Spanish to explain what a HUGE reaction I had to his work!  You know how much I just love COLOR - well I sure found it here!!!  Marcio's work just MOVES as you look at it! 

Don't you just love it when you find an artist that makes your fingers itch to just get home and CREATE something, anything!  If you have the time, click on his name above and take a delightful journey through his inspiring work!

Now THAT is an artist who really knows his palette! I admire those who could do this as I know how hard it is to tame colors. Thanks for sharing his work with us, Julia dear.:)

I'm doing wonderfully well here, with the tiny baby kicking and stretching away every three minutes in my tummy... hehehe...

I hope you're having fabulous days! oxx
