art, asilah, morocco, tachfin

Had a lovely time out last night. Some of you may remember that when I was in Asilah with Susan last year we met an artist in the Medina called Tachfin. He told us he was planning to have an exhibition of his work in Sevilla, which finally happened in December. I had been planning on going and, as usual, left it until the last night … and even then I almost didn’t go because of the cold and I was feeling so tired. But I’m very glad I made the effort because it was great seeing Tachfin again and meeting his ex-wife and good friend, Violeta. We had a few tapas at the  Galería Taberna Anima (very cool venue) and chatted until quite late. Hoping to stay in touch with both of them. Oh, and Tachfin gave me one of his watercolours as a birthday present!

You can see some of Tachfin’s paintings below the links…

Today’s Photohunter theme is “bird(s)”.

Taken in Málaga when I was on holiday there last August.
Apparently it’s worth two in the bush…

50 vintage ads

twiggy-lashes
I actually remember this Twiggy ad!

Love the “high tech” ones for the picture phone and especially the “angry young computer”. Felt very Mad Men going through these (the drawing in the Dobbs ad looks exactly like Don Draper) though I was very surprised to see Dave Brubeck flogging Kenmore dryers. And what was up with all those gay black dudes drinking Bud? Seems very risqué for its time.

Which ones did you like best?
