Spain!

photo by Dana Haynes

In the fall of 2019, my partner and I had such a blast in Spain! We began in Granada for a dear friend's wedding, where I drew the Flamenco performance. Then we proceeded to Barcelona. I couldn't wait to visit my beloved Sagrada Familia, for the 3rd time now. First visit happened over a decade ago, on my first solo reportage trip. The second visitation with Gaudi's masterpiece took place during the Urban Sketcher's 4th International symposium. This time 'round, Sagrada Familia had made significant growth, had acquired many more towers and a start of the 3rd facade. We visited the church three times during a 5-day stay in Barcelona, and it still felt like it wasn't enough... I have never been inside a more beautiful place. And I can't wait to see it again!

Southwest Vacation

Photo by Dana Haynes

America the Beautiful! Man, there is SO much to see and explore... I've never been to Arizona nor Utah until last week. Our sweet, week-long Southwest vacation covered the Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Marble and Glen Canyons, Lake Powell and Zion National Park. The winter storm made everything less accessible but more beautiful, and added to the magic.
