Picasso, Mari and windy coastline

 For people knowing me and my interest in modern art, it will not be a surprise that I present an image of the great Picasso and myself. This is from Mijas Pueblo where Pablo is sitting outside a nice library restaurant. The wine is super.
 The same day I received a greeting from Norway where my granddaughter Mari had made her painting in Picasso style. Lovely.
 You may see some difference between Mari and Pablo when lokking at Picasso´s painting of Dora Maar "Buste de Femme"from 1938. Today value about 25 mill Euros, but no one knows what Mari can grow into.


Back to Fuenfirola, Spain, and the last weeks windy and heavy waves (estimated to ab. 3 meter today) The forces of nature is spectacular.

Walking along the coasline and the beaches these days require some more clothes than you normally use in March, but the sun is warm and we are far away from the storm and snow in Norway these days.

However, the strength of the wind can make a lot of troubles for those working on the beaches.

This shed was lifted and moved from it´s base, and cornered into the promenade close to the beachbar Gali Gali. The shed is heavy and full of sunbeds and mattresses. Great forces must have been in action..

But the windy weather also make time for surfers and kiters to play in the waves. The summer is coming closer for every day.
