This eARThist Vlog is about the nice city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Even though I’ve visited before, I still love to wander its streets — there’s always something new to see. This is because of my earlier work creating travel content around the world, which you can still find at TravelTelly.com.
Photography and filming continue to bring me peace of mind. They help me focus on the present moment from breathtaking scenery to the nuances of human behavior. These moments often spark my inspiration to draw. For me, art is like breathing; it’s not work, it’s simply part of who I am.
Gran Canaria’s climate is perfect year-round — not too hot, not too cold — making it an ideal place for me to create new art. Every visit becomes a creative chapter. Thanks to my artist friend Alecs and the inspiration he brings, I always leave with something new Art.
When I returned this time, my first frame made in 2024 was hanging with Alecs art in the coworking space. Alecs inspired me to explore new surfaces and materials, pushing my art beyond the digital. I’m truly grateful he helped me step outside my comfort zone. Now I’m in love with this new direction, working more with physical art.
Alecs and Elena now own the first official artwork with an original frame from this new series. If you want to see it, visit Soppa de Azul in Las Palmas. We also agreed that he only can sell the artwork if the price is enough to bring Alecs and his family to Japan — where we’d meet again, this time with an artist friend over there. That kind of connection makes the piece even more meaningful.
I’ll keep adding travel content to my vlogs whenever I have the time. The world is such a beautiful place, and I love sharing it with you.
