Well, almost a year ago I opened this blog and much walking, much walking, but had not told any of my travels. That is not to be very distant, not created.
The truth is that I do not like too forográficas cameras because they are too true to life, oddly enough. It is far better a sketchbook, and more fun. In some strange way, the picture always seems more real than the photograph. The downside is that it requires some patience of my companions, but I always do quick drawings and schematics. The interesting thing is to capture the spirit of things
.
So when my good friend told me she Tharasia and Richard went to Maragatería to do some photinos, I joined the expedition, because in the land of my ancestors, there are always many interesting things to draw.
Tabladillo visited the area, where I picked up the outline of the landscape on the left. The village was certainly very nice at times, but now is a little abandoned. Some houses have been restored respecting the
appearance of old stone buildings, but others are modern architectural horrors, or have a mixture of several styles, with disastrous results. Many of the most interesting are in ruins, including three houses that still remains of its traditional thatched roof.
I ordered, however, time to draw a strange stork's nest, in what appears
that was once a water tower, now unused.
also found a door in a house built deliciously virtually demolished. I've always liked painting old doors, because no two are alike and have a great personality. Can not say the same of modern architecture, unfortunately.
have to see the care put into the simplest things. It is true that modern materials we have made life much easier and require less work, but what we gained in comfort
we lost in aesthetics.
The only other interesting thing was a trap to shoe, but it was very well preserved. many pieces were missing and I had never seen an all you can do was play it as is, and that every imagination do the rest.
Tharasia was interested in photographing an abandoned village (Vegaquemada Villaquemada or were not sure), but before we go through Rabanal del Camino, to take a drink in one of the Pilgrim's Village Shelter. Excellent olives, I must say.
Anyway, there we spoke of the People's Church, where excavations seem to be doing, and you can observe various architectural styles that occurred over the years, and some burials old. They kept taking pictures, but that's not a problem for me. Unfortunately, the church was closed, but you can draw the interesting Torre, with a nice clock XIX.
And there we went to the foot of Teleno. No photograph or picture can do justice to this landscape, so do not even try it, and I began to contemplate the quiet area, while my friends ended up with their work. And I found the piece of quartz Pedrolo largest he had seen in my life. Gold zone, you know.
Ah, indeed. My friend Richard is still finding many bowls carved in stone, especially below the sill. Says it should be investigated. The give other reason, because they believe it is wise to contradict him, but who knows ...
