at Naco



This is a drawing of Julian Calleros, the owner of Naco Gallery Cafe. Met there last week with him, artist Sylvia Temis and musician Dennis Duffin. Sylvia and I are doing a mural there for the Day of the Dead. We all chatted and drank coffee in the sunny front room. Dennis played some guitar, I drew, Sylvia and Julien organized timelines. Opening night is going to be fun with Flamenco music and Mexican traditional songs by Shirley Pincay "La Pili" singing and Dennis on guitar with some musician friends. I think Sylvia is going to get in costume and dance Flameco, which she is mad for. Sylvia was my student at The Art Institute of Toronto a few years ago. What a creative dynamo. She's from Mexico. The cafe is great. Nice location on Dundas West. Julian always has interesting installations and shows up on the walls.
