ACAP members at the opening

These are photos of my work at the ACAP (Artists Association of Santa Catarina) Group show at the Cruz and Souza Museum in the centre of Florianopolis. 

My paintings depict the centre of Florianopolis- they were painted in the last few months and may  be seen on previous pages.

Here is the invitation for a group show with the Artists of Santa Catarina Group. The title translates as   Dialogues with the Surroundings -  I have several pieces in it, all painted in the centre.

These works continue a series of Floripan paintings done with a view to the Association of Artists of Santa Catarina (ACAP, which I recently joined) Christmas exhibition. The architecture of the town centre is often highly detailed and, though prettily coloured, makes a rather fussy basis for the sort of painting I enjoy.

The city is full of vagrants and rough sleepers who rather seem to take over the city after the shops close. 

These pictures pursue the simple style, somewhat like that used in children`s books, and which seems appropriate to the character of the town.
