Is Wearing A Rosery Offensive

OLGA SINCLAIR

OUTSTANDING WOMEN YEAR

By: Felipe Argote

A small Olga met her while playing with my sisters on the street Mariano Arosemena, where both families live an unforgettable part of our childhoods. Olga had my same age. In those days even used those enormous sunglasses that almost covered their faces. Jorge, his older brother, I remember him with his infectious laugh, her wide semantic or clutching fists with another boy named Fonchito. Miguel, his younger brother, just remember crawling wearing a diaper and a swetercito.

His apartment was on top of a two-story house, right next to the school Sara Sotillo and diagonal to our apartment across the street. Right in the middle of the street on Sundays developed besibol matches with rubber ball hitting with your fist. The match between the children only stopped every fifteen or twenty minutes when a car passed. Adults shouted from the balcony to support your favorite team. All the children played, even more guys like me, who declared us butter. This was only hitting the ball with the rubber hand, let me run all the bases while everyone applauded, although the race was not valid.

remember being on one occasion to see Olga's father, the painter laureate Alfredo Sinclair Panama while his abstract painting in their own homes. To see who could not imagine liking these doodles. I was excused because he was only eight years at the time,

I remember that girl Olga liked the painting and imitated his father moving rhythmically, as if it were part of a Vivaldi sinfonóa, brush on a piece of white paper.

flood already have seen his style is very different from his father Alfredo. His figures strongly anatomical and intense colors reflect a passion and acute fogocidad.

On Tuesday, 29 March, I attended the recognition given by the Panamanian Association of Business Executives by giving the distinction Olga Sinclair Award as "Outstanding Woman of the Year."

It was a very busy and emotional, where among other things, I had the opportunity to meet Mrs. Olga, mother of the painter and friend of my late mother, Silvia, like the other children of the Mrs. Olga, my childhood friends, Dr. George Sinclair and Michael.

Daniel Argote Recently my son was traveling in Madrid. There he met a English man who upon discovering that my son was in Panama, told with a certain presumption that his house had a picture of a famous painter in Panama. In inquiring about the name, I answer in English very proud and somewhat petulant tone: Well man, Olga Sinclair.
