A day in Granada with tinto de verano
When I told my friend Cristina that Lauren and I would be visiting Spain, she got very excited, telling us that we had to visit Granada, the Alhambra, and drink lots of tinto veranos. During her semester-long study-abroad program, she fell in love with Spain and the summery drink. To help keep her treasured memories as fresh as a tinto verano, Cristina commissioned me to make a drawing of the Andalusian town.
Here it is, Cristina, A Day in Granada with Tinto Verano (8″x 10″, mixed media on paper), online and on its way to you via international mail.

i received the drawing!!!!!! what a surprise!!! it came in the mail on monday
todd- you captured it! thank you. i love it and love that memories poured back when i saw it. you are awesome. i know exactly what plaza you were in when you drew it. and the best part…i went skinny dipping in that fountain! ha!
regarding the alhambra – i don’t recognize anything you wrote about
when i was there (a decade ago), it wasn’t very visitor friendly (4 languages) and tix were never sold out. we would actually meet up there once a week and study there with a group of friends
there was a bench we loved with a view. i’m a little sad to hear its become such a destination.
love to you both
