Hello everyone.

 I have been reading all sorts of comments on Youtube and here too today about the two ladies! Thank you for your views - I have been reading them all assiduously trying to helps us make up our minds!  Here are definitely fans of them both! My personal view changes one day to the next.

 One factor is that the second one isn’t really finished yet nor are the dragons on either. I think it does make a lot of sense to bring them both to Can Punxes at some point and have a look in situ. That might help land on a choice.

I did want to share these photos though -  as the first head has two identical sisters.

One is in Spain in Urus, very near the French border in a mountainous area. She is privately owned. 

The other is a living fountain sculpture of stainless steel, bronze, and stone, at the Entrance to Mickel Park, Ridgetown, Ontario.  This is a photo of it!

Also I wanted to thank Sally Goodey for alerting me to the fact that there is a Netflix programme called Living With Gaudí.  Having had a quick look online I think it is about a lady who lives inside the Casa Milá. This building is often know as La Pedrera which I think means ‘the quarry’ in Spanish due to its rock-like appearance. It was the last domestic building completed by Gaudí and was completed in 1912 just one year after Can Punxes in 1911. I have read before that not all the new residents at the time fully appreciated the building like we do today. I think curvy walls etc made it difficult to fit furniture

I really look forward to watching it over the weekend!

Both options look amazing but I think it's wise to wait until the details are a bit more defined before making your decision. It's a big investment and something you will see every day so you need to be completely happy with your choice.

The Gaudi film is rather beautiful! Hope that you enjoy it.

yes I agree - also we are asking Eduin and Veronica to bring the waxes here at some point as I think seeing them in situ will help a lot.
