ancing in the sunrise. Salou is a beach village near Tarragona. Hundred years ago Salou was a small fisherman’s village. At that time people from Reus went there to enjoy the beach. Later they built summer houses, chalets, there. A few modernista chalets still exists near the harbor. Nowadays it is very touristic but there are still a few nice places to go to. Going northeast along the coast you find some little hills ending as cliffs in the sea. From the cliffs you can watch the sunrise.

his work symbolises the house and garden in Salou. I lived in the house for a few weeks. I did some renovation work on the house and made some paintings. The title, “el mar y más” means “the sea and more”. This work is made out of 2 canvases, screwed together. Again, I had Van Gogh in mind. More works of Vincent van Gogh can be seen online or live in the Van Gogh museum. Very nice site.
