Raul Plasencia


Raul Plasencia is a very good artist. A painter, a classical painter as Edith, his daughter, like to say. She asked me if I could help her make a nice portfolio of his paintings and...while I was there, I took a quick portrait of them.



Here are a couple of his paintings.


The above one is a small Don Quijote,


and this one a view of Venice, Italy, that he visited a few times.

He's also very good at portraits and he would make your own for a reasonable fee. You can check a few more of his paintings on my flickr page here.


Enjoy his paintings and in case you want one for yourself just let me know and I'll put you in contact with him.

Thank you!


I wanted to thank all of you for helping me at the ARTWalk last weekend.

Here are a few snapshots from the event.


It was a great success and your support was very much appreciated!


My apologies if you passed by after I left, but I'm sure Giangi and Nuria were able to take care of you.


Thanks again!

My first time...


Last weekend my friend Deborah organized a photoshoot at the Diavolo Dance Space in downtown LA. It was my first time in a real theater. Really a good experience and definitely a lot of work but I think we captured some good moments.


All the shots were taken with a combination of theatrical lights and strobes in various configurations. You can see a few more here on my flickr page.


Thanks to Deborah Rosen for making this possible, to Jerry for helping me a great deal in setting up the lights and to all the dancers for their performance!


I hope you enjoy them.
