Hello Susan! Thanks for commenting. Yes I knew Sorolla was Spanish. We had a most wonderful exhibit of his luminous work here in San Diego last year! My sometimes too helpful wordpress popups can fill-in my tag choices incorrectly, quickly and undetected by my aging eyes. Thanks for catching this and its been corrected now. How lucky you are to live in such a beautiful place! Best regards, Douglas

Hi Douglas,
Yes, I like Sorolla very much specially the way he captures light. I often go to his house, they have a small garden, with statues and a fountain. Very Spanish, small and cozy.
