ruins that you can literally walk to
so many stores with many of the same things you see everywhere, but in the midst of this little big tourist town, we found the most amazing artist ever!
he explained his art to us - and everyone if you ask will tell you "hecho a mano!!" but really, you and they know that it was made in a factory... but with our little artist, clearly not the case!
ok some of the art was not his... there were a few select pieces against the back wall that were his... coincidentally, the three we picked out turned out to be three that he had painted, and they were amazing.
They represented, he told us, the peruvian life, suffering greys and blacks with brilliant splashes of red living blood standing out starkly against the dull colored dancing figures.
they were amazing - others with brilliant reds, oranges and yellows, simple figures representing the joys of those times to be celebrated in life...
no puedo esperar a mostrarlos a todos cuando regresamos!
diamond in the rough #2 in ollantaytambo = Heart`s Cafe
Heart's Cafe is a little cafe sin ánimo de lucro, off of the plaza de armas en ollantaytambo. It was made in the hopes of raising money for the local community, projects such as building a domestic violence shelter - right up our alley no?
definitely going to give them a call tomorrow and find out how we can give them our extra OCPs and coordinate for the future! their office is in Urubamba tambien, how amazing right? :)
what a great day! Que dia perfecto!
Hasta pronto mis lectores! besitos!
