Villaricos exhibition captures summer memories

PAINTER Pilar Peciña is showing her work at the Castillo de Villaricos in Cuevas del Amanzora.
“Painting is my passion, not only as a hobby but also professionally,” the artist said. ‘“Recuerdos del verano’ (Summer memories) is a collection of 20 pictures that convey the universe of emotions that my subjects awaken in me.”
Although she began her artistic career creating glazed enamels the artist, who lives in Madrid, turned to oils some years later. “They allow me to capture two fundamental aspects of my work, the light and the brushwork involved in figurative painting,” Peciña said.
The paintings are on show until July 31 at the Sala de Exposiciones in Villaricos castle from 10.30am-1.30pm and 5pm-8pm Tuesday to Saturday. Sundays 10.30am until 1.30pm.
