Granny
Illustrations inspired by a Spanish folk tale called Aunt Dolores. This is the story of a poor old woman who turned all her suffering misery to her advantage, with a little help from a pilgrim and a one-of-a-kind apple tree. In the end, she outsmarted even death. Tradition says that even today one can come across an old woman sunbathing next to her
apple tree.

strength and wisdom.
