30 Camino Paintings in 30 Days

[VNwalking]

Love both of these...you have captured the Botafumerio perfectly! So many fond memories of both these places: quietly soaking my ankle in the icy water at Ribadiso...and a few days later being in the packed Cathedral for the mass. Opposite ends of the Camino experience spectrum, but both highlights. Thanks Catherine.....wonderful memories!

It has been an interesting and wonderful journey. I'm going to miss it. Thank you.

Any plans for another - a different route?

Even though my 30 day Camino art challenge is over I still keep busy painting. I have just added a few more to my Album Camino Watercolour. Here is a painting that I just finished yesterday. It was about 15 km past Santo Domingo that I came upon this little village that seemed more like a ghost town. I thought this Pepsi machine was the funniest sight. I call it 'Pepsi on the Camino'

Your charming watercolor is of Viloria de Rioja which was the birthplace of Santo Domingo de la Calzada in 1019. ...Other times, other customs.

Thank you Mspath! I was looking through my Brierley book and couldn't figure it out.

Hi Catherine
Would you consider doing another botafumairo? I realy like that one and I was too late to buy it from you.
