Great to hear your Grandmothers history. Sharing the video story, explaining all the small elements surrounding her portrait is very special and a great record for your family too. And here on substack it feels like a calmer space to engage with this post. Less distraction from ads and other posts.

Thank you! I think she deserved it. I needed to start again writing and sharing more deeper post. Now it is a question of constantcy and commitment.

I hear you on the move from IG to Substack, did the same just a few weeks ago. Feels good to be here and choose our own pace and focus on what we want. Feels like a breath of fresh air...

Lovely portrait of your granny!

It is not a 100% move, I’m still using Instagram, but I do not want to keep creating content for them. I’ll share images but not long posts, which I’ll do here.

Bienvenido a Substack! Love to hear about your grandmother and the colour palette of the portrait, what a great tribute to her 💛

¡Gracias! Echaba de menos escribir y dar tiempo a otros aspectos. Instagram es un lugar fugaz que muchas veces no nos proporciona el placer, todo pasa y nada permanece. Cada publicación cae en el olvido.

Verdad! Aqui me parece lo sítio cierto para reflexionar y dedicar más tiempo a lo que nos gusta, sin prisas.

Sí, hay que recuperar la capacidad de reflexión y darnos tiempo.
