Artichoke and shrimp with Romesco sauce

Romesco which I make about as often as the sun rises, is made with roasted red peppers, water-soaked ancho chilies, paprika, roasted almonds, sautéed garlic, shallots and sherry vinegar ground into this paste that feels like flavored butter in your mouth. Mix canned sautéed artichoke hearts with sautéed onion and garlic and with the Romesco. Although Romesco is traditional Catalan it reminds me of the starry night over the Rhone.
