: I think not. Just my acrylics, brushes and a nice old paper.
M & G: Tell us one of your hobbies for your free time
Mercedes I enjoy being with my daughter, have long conversations with my dog, drinking jasmine tea, dancing, drinking the sun and raise the falling leaves of the trees to invent characters.
M & G Your book- favorite story? Mercedes
: I think Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass has been very important in my life. I often feel I'm falling and that's when my imagination is the best shelter. Maybe that's why I also enjoy both cronopios Cortazar and many other texts from him. Pizarnik is also my great companion on this trip.
