I feel like the unofficial adopted kids (especially the abused ones) will use the last name “Madrigal” to estrange themself from the last name they got from their parents/guardian. 

Also, when a kid (or kids) feels unsafe at home do they go to Dolores and/or Mariano? I’m sure it’s a yes but I’m just makin sure. 

I kind of imagine a kid running to Tia Casita and going through the secret back door to Dolores. And in the morning all of the other madrigals just wake up and see a random kid at the breakfast table. Lolo silently dares anyone to say anything with her side eye. 

In that type of situation she’ll have the kid stay at Casita with Camilo, Mirabel, and Antonio while she beats up the people who made her baby feel any sort of pain (and takes them to the authorities right afterwards.)

And on the plus side, a new baby gets to stay with her! 

Lil side thought: The kids definitely call Mariano’s grandmother Bisabuela and it warms her heart so much. 

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE NAMES 🙏 ITS AN HONOR

Also I’m pretty sure that’s the case with most of the children there!! Don’t like being a (surname)? Dont worry just be a madrigal! 😃👍

When any of the children just start to feel bad at a certain point, they most likely go to Dolores. Calling her or just go into the room! But I’m sure that if they noticed that Dolores is busy they definitely will go to Mariano too :)

I would say that Dolores would’ve wanted the kids to rather have breakfast in the room since most of them maybe don’t trust any other adult but if they would still want to stay with Dolores (or any of the others) she would bring them down without an expectation!

Sooo true! It’s like- you hurt them and Dolores will hurt you 🙌 Dolores loves taking in new babies, since they’re literally adorable 🥹

Bisabuela on her way!💪 (literally such an cute name for her💕)

The next morning after Dolores took the two in

Alma would’ve been just like “seriously…an other one..”

Julieta and Agustín would start to eventually adore them! (But then question later on from where they come from)

Pepa would be confused meanwhile casita accidentally left Félix out! (Not in a mean way, he was just late and casita forgot)

Mariano would’ve come to visti too, just to make sure everything’s okay! (Alma would think he came for Isabela, and would put him next to her which annoyed dolores a lot)

Mirabel would tell the kids that she would come play later! (She’s their favorite playmate and it’s normal for them to eat faster than the Madrigals)

Antonio introduces the girl everyone in his family and would definitely keep talking to her!

Isabela would get annoyed that Dolores is doing it, thinking she’s trying to ruin breakfast time (but she actually also adores the new children)

Camilo would try to irritate Isabela on purpose when he sees that she gets annoyed by it, mostly he does it because he knows that she likes the children (he makes sure they eventually talk to her too, if the wanna)

Luisa waves to the little one, also finding it adorable :D (Camilo did it on purpose but then he started to wave on his own)

And dolores just stares Alma down, daring her to say anything about it!

+ Mariano’s grandmother (don’t have a name yet) would be with the children upstairs, making sure they’re okay while Dolores is gone

Twins Somehow Get Past Red Sox In 12th.

Twins 4 Red Sox 2 W-Blewett (1-0) L-Criswell (6-5) SV-Jax (10)

The Minnesota Twins have fallen on hard times during a (10-20) stretch in their past thirty games. The Tigers have caught them in the American League Wild-Card race and they started their last road series against the Red Sox tonight in Boston. A pitcher's duel broke out to start the night as David Festa and Richard Fitts threw up zeroes for the first three innings. The Red Sox rallied in the fourth when Tyler O'Neill drew a lead-off walk and Wilyer Abreu singled. Trevor Story lined a run-scoring single to center to start the scoring. Richard Fitts threw five shutout innings and the Red Sox bullpen held up until the seventh. Byron Buxton lined a one-out single to center and stole second base. Trevor Larnach singled and Carlos Correa reached on a fielder's choice to plate a run to tie the game at one. Both bullpens held up until the twelfth when Byron Buxton led-off with a single and Trevor Larnach hit a nubber back to the mound to plate Kyle Farmer. Carlos Correa drew a walk to load up the bases and Matt Wallner lined a run-scoring single to right. Willi Castro hit a sac fly to right to put the Twins up by three. Connor Wong knocked in the ghost runner with a grounder in the bottom of the twelfth. Trevor Story struck out swinging to end the game and the Twins picked up a big win tonight.

-Final Thoughts- David Festa threw a great game when the team needed him to. He went five innings and allowed a run on four hits with three walks and six strikeouts. Caleb Thielbar got the first two outs of the sixth and Michael Tonkin got out of the sixth. Cole Sands struck out teh side in the seventh, Jhoan Duran fanned two in a clean eighth, and Ronny Henriquez struck out two in the ninth. Louie Varland got four big outs, Scott Blewett put up a zero in the eleventh, and Griffin Jax gave up the ghost runner for the save in the twelfth. Byron Buxton, Trevor Larnach, Carlos Correa, Matt Wallner, and Royce Lewis had two hits each. The Twins hit 6-for-20 with runners in scoring position and left fifteen men on base. Tomorrow, Pablo Lopez faces Kutter Crawford in Game 2.

I mean, this was a good series. Does it suck to lose the one game it felt like we had the surest shot of winning, in the most stunning single-inning relief pitching collapse this team has seen in probably two years? Yes. Did we battle out three great wins in start-to-finish, whole-team efforts to convincingly take a road series against the defending world series champs? Also yes.

Despite the whole everything with Alcala's inning yesterday, the bullpen was still the MVP of this series, with 14 innings and 1 earned run across the four games excluding the aforementioned inning. All four starting pitchers struggled with some combination of messy innings and hard-hit balls, but they got out of their jams and kept the team in the game. Ober’s quality start streak is at 10, Pablo battled like hell for his 6 shutout innings, Duran came in clutch with back-to-back 1-run saves while pitching three straight days, and special shoutout to Henriquez for his first career win.

Carlos Santana is like, the MVP of this team right now. Game winning RBI in the first two games, game tying home run in game 4, countless great defensive plays at first base. Similar shoutout to Castro and his new hair extensions, with his career-high 10th homer in game 1, the go-ahead hit in game 3, and some great defense. Also Larnach and Jeffers had some solid hits, hopefully they can get some consistency going. The offense has been pretty inconsistent lately down two of our best hitters, but in this series they largely got just enough to make it work.

This is totally bias since I’ve been in the trenches for Alcala all year, but I really don’t feel like that performance was a red flag for anything going forward. Don’t get me wrong, it was really bad, but he wasn’t really pitching badly, per se (besides the hanging changeup to Seager), the Rangers just came out swinging at the fastball. He’s definitely come down to earth since the all-star break, but I don’t think expecting a sub-2 ERA from him was necessarily realistic, and he did pitch two excellent setup innings earlier in the series.

Anyway, it was a great series, and even better considering the impact on the standings thanks to our allies in Milwaukee: we’re now 2 games back of the Guardians with a tough midweek road series for both teams. It may not feel like it sometimes but we’ve been playing at a 98-win pace since the start of that April win streak. This is a great summer to be a Twins fan.

Figure Drawing- Reflection Post (Videos and Article). 9/13/23

Wilhelm De Kooning was born in Rotterdam in the year 1904. When he was twelve, he worked as an apprentice of a local and decorating firm. At night he attended the Rotterdam Academy of Fine Arts from there he learned about the model and display still life work. When he was twenty-two he moved to America and settled in New Jersey. He maintained himself by taking the occupation of house painter. Later he would move to New York and meet other painters such as Arshile Gorky and Stuart Davis.

De Kooning's interest in art centered down to abstraction. These types of paintings had a similar resonance to artworks made by Picasso and Miro. In the year 1936, De Kooning worked as a full-time artist.

Some of his paintings range from dark and gruesome while others were light and humorous. According to his wife when De Kooning attended his first exhibition show, he did not display any of his female artworks, instead he focused on making works of art using white and black brush strokes. The purpose of the image was to capture New York as he saw. He paints the piece this way, allowing him to add more emotion, drama, enabling him to show his ideas.

In 1950, De Kooning made a piece called "Woman 1". It focused on an overpowering female individual. De Kooning mentioned that before he met his wife most of his paintings didn't impact him as much as there was little to no emotion added. After he got married, his artworks brightened up. He said that he wanted to make his paintings comical and funny rejecting any depressing features.

Alice Neel was born in the 1900's and grew up in Colwyn Pennsylvania, she didn't like the area where she lived. When Alice turned twenty-one she enrolled in the Philadelphia school of design for women. She married a man named Carlos Henriquez moving to Havana to make art. Sadly, the relationship ended short. She later moved to Spanish Harlem, New York during the Great Depression where she painted the people in her neighborhood. One portrait shows two girls. Carmen and Antonia Incarnacion. Alice immediately knew what the girls were going through. Living in a small town herself, she instantly knew that the two girls grew up under poverty and had to endure illnesses day by day was not an adequate lifestyle.

Kelly Baum the co-curator of the exhibit, "Alice Neel people come first". comments that Neel painted things that she was not supposed to. One of her paintings depicts a naked woman sitting on a chair. It challenges the audience as they try to make sense of what painting means. Most of her paintings lacked the abstract expressionism within the piece as she was straight to the point. She wanted to show what life was for people of the lower class, children who were born in poverty and the harsh conditions they had to endure.

Her paintings followed principles regarding humanism. The expressions and background clearly show that act being applied. Alice Neel's way of painting keeps her alive if she did not paint then what purpose does her work have. Her painting that is based off one her daughters. Ginny Neel was the daughter in law of Alice. During the interview Ginny states that the painting "Ginny in Striped Shirt" was her favorite painting, she liked it because it captured what she was feeling internally rather than the expression on the outside. Making it feel more authentic.

Born in Germany on December 8, 1922. Lucian Freud was a grandson of Sigmund, and a respected figure in London. His best work in London clashes with the American painting. Freud was best known for using the style, Naturalism. Freud is able capture scenes precisely and eloquently giving the artwork an old-fashioned appeal. However, he was not always appreciated for his works. The Art Council of Great Britan refused to invite him on a 1974 group show, their reason being that his work represents traditions established before the 1960’s.

Based on the article, it states that Freud’s best work took place in the fifties, his work hadn’t been seen as useless. It was at this time that Freud painted “Hotel Bedroom”. The scene of a man gazing at a woman’s Paris hotel bed for emotional power. William Feaver, a British art critic mentions that he and Frued had multiple conversations on understanding Freud’s artworks involving elements in the image that resemble his art. In conversations Frued does criticize others too harshly but he does not humor others around him instead, he focuses on the small things. Frued comments to people that all the things they learn has been through screens rather than experiencing life by touch and seeing. Feeling things by hand makes you relate more to the physical world and looking at the model makes me uncover new things that will help me.

Frued was a father too many children approximately forty. An ex-lover commented that she often counted his children but paid scarcely to any of them. Celia Paul an author wrote a memoir about Freud one section talks about his fascination to women. She mentions that Freud’s emotions mix between him being cold and distant to warm and loving offering her a bouquet of yellow narcissi. Many of his daughters who didn’t receive any attention from him became his models posing for him naked. Several people become angered rather than disgusted one daughter said.

All of Freud’s pictures are portraits. Feaver in his book says that Freud sees all his models both men and women as individuals without labels. The progression of the number of people in his work defines their humanism. Freud draws with a strongly handled, shield-shaped mark swiping with a good diagonal rhythm, so that each sharp mark runs jagged to the next. White highlights are added not to adjust from within the shade but splashed down impulsively. Freud shows anger which is his main point when painting while angst is his main point when showing expressions.

Reflection Statement

After seeing the two videos and reading the article. I learned that each artist has their own unique style. From De Kooning it was his creativeness to create an abstract of a female making it appear humorous. Alice Neel's portraits of people living out on the streets captured my attention on how difficult some people live. Finally, Lucian Freud's philosophy of human to human connection makes me reflect on how much modern society lacks that aspect.

Each artist did not have it simple. Their ideologies were challenged and insulted. But their artworks changed the art world for people who appreciate their styles find it fascinating. I surely found them all interesting. Out of the three, I'd pick Alice Neel's art style it clearly shows the reality that people who have work to provide for themselves and their families that many external factors make it frustrating for one individual to handle it all. But the small things in life are the things to be grateful and enjoy them to the fullest like painting I'm sure she enjoyed doing that the most.

Indians Rally In 10th To Stun Twins.

Twins 4 Indians 5 W-Gaddis (5-3) L-Henriquez (1-1)

The Minnesota Twins picked up a huge nailbiting win over the Indians last night to keep their Wild-Card lead last night. They returned to action tonight in Game 3. The Twins were ready from the start as Willi Castro led-off with a double to left and Matt Wallner singled. Carlos Correa hit a grounder to short that Brayan Rocchio bobbled. A run scored on the error and the Twins had a one-run lead before the Indians grabbed a bat. The Indians responded in the second when Josh Naylor crushed a Bailey Ober fastball out to right for a solo homer to tie the game at one. Bailey Ober and Tanner Bibee settled things down until the middle innings. Willi Castro was hit by a pitch and Matt Wallner singled to right. Carlos Correa reached on an infield singled, which scored a run. Bailey Ober sailed through six innings then Josh Naylor blasted a change-up out to right for a solo homer to even the game at two after seven frames. The bullpens held up at the end and we headed into extra innings. The Twins quickly loaded up the bases in the tenth. Carlos Correa knocked in a pair with a single to center to put the Twins back on top. Kyle Manzardo greeted Ronny Henriquez with a run-scoring single to center to inch Cleveland within a run. Andres Gimenez walked and Will Brennan singled home the game-tying run. Brayan Rocchio hit a walk-off single to right and the Indians stunned the Twins again.

-Final Thoughts- Bailey Ober pitched a great game and hardly got any run support for it. He went seven innings and allowed two runs on four hits with twelve strikeouts. Louie Varland had a 1-2-3 eighth, Jhoan Duran struck out two in the ninth, and Ronny Henriquez gave up three in 2/3 of an inning. Michael Tonkin didn't retire a batter in the tenth. I don't understand going to Ronny Henriquez in the tenth. He isn''t a strikeout guy and Michael Tonkin is a more veteran guy. If Griffin Jax and Cole Sands were unavailable then go to Tonkin. Matt Wallner and Carlos Correa had three hits each. The Twins hit 4-for-14 with runners in scoring position and left seven men on base. Tomorrow, Simeon Woods Richardson faces Joey Cantillo in the series finale.

Don’t Let The “Caravan” Stop!

Not when it moves as it does in this monstrously brilliant version of Duke Ellington's 1937 composition.

While somewhere in there, fragments of the original may be glimpsed from time to time, this interpretation relates to it as Chartres Cathedral does to a country church in rural Iowa. That's mainly due to Cuban pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba's vision and daring. However, the entire trio are simply stunning.

A studio version of Rubalcaba’s interpretation can be found on his 1999 disc Inner Vision (Blue Note 7243 499241 2 3). I'm not sure when, or where, this live performance was recorded, but it's just too awesome not to post. So here, with their take on Ellington's Caravan, are:

Gonzalo Rubalcaba, piano Carlos Henriquez, bass Ignacio Berroa, drums
