My family


Here is a picture of my wife, Nuri Francino, with our two daughters, Marta and Monica at the waterfalls of Rhin river, in Schauffhausen (Switzerland), taken in February 2005 when we went there on vacation. We did this trip to Switzerland because the family lived there in the eighties during two years: Monica was born in that country, in Horgen, near Zurich, and we moved back to Tarragona when she was 3 months old. From then on, we had not been there with them anymore.




My daughter Marta, after finishing her university studies in English Philology, decided to learn Plastic Arts at Massana School, in Barcelona, where she started in 2004.

Here you will find a sampling of some of her

paintings

drawings

ceramic tiles and stained glass

imitation jewellery.




My daughter Monica, here comparing herself to Venus, she is at present studying Biology at Barcelona University (UB).




At this point, a very special recollection for my brother Jordi (1962-1998), who died at the age of 35.
He stumbled with life and had a very bad luck. He was a musician (violin and keyboard player) and left a few songs with which I want to honour his memory.




Here my brother Toni in a picture of the year 2006.




One of the last pictures of my mother, who died from Alzheimer (+ 2005).




And finally, my father Josep in a recent picture from summer of 2005. My father is also a musician, in fact a cellist, and here you will find a few pictures of him, and some audio recordings.
