Where do things come from?
I have a friend artist, always in search of color and textures. I listen carefully when I explained their progress, but where are the colors? I already know my intention imaginareis, my intention. To anyone who knows some Did An image of the well -known squares of the tanings will have come.
For the one who has not seen it, These are rather encased squares where much of the Callejuelas de la Medina flows. they, Numerous covers stuffed by different dyes are creating a large color honeycomb. There are four of these "centers of medieval crafts" active. I have to say that, After having lost myself several times for the Medina, I have only drained in a couple of them.

«By surprise, I took a brucis with the unique place. After being pushed by a marabunta of people who harassed me; For my clothing, Thanks to its drunk status and my language ignorance, I ended up entering one of the stores that give view to the you. The color show that was contemplated that day was made up of an impressive fusion of red. I still remember the feeling.
