NR Flamingo Mexico Coast MeXiCaN FoLk ArT RoMy Painting "Bienvenidos!" Santa Elena Canyon ~ Rio Grande Terlingua Estudio Description: Southwest ~ Mexican Folk Art ~ RoMy Original Paintings Title: "Dos Sonadors" Size: Approx. 6 1/4" x 6" (painted on thin TIN ) Hola! Muchos Gracias for stopping by my Terlingua Art Studio near Terlingua Ghost Town & Big Bend National Park (Texas) along the border of Old Mexico! For your consideration today I am offering this original painting with NO RESERVE : DESCRIPTION It's another gorgeous day along the coast of Old Mexico ~ the pretty senorita Lydia and her little gato "Lego" are visiting Lydia's sister Maria who lives in a lovely casita on the beach ~ and every afternoon just past the siesta hour Lydia and Lego climb to the top of this bluff ~ from the view is so lovely ~ and Lydia enjoys watching the colourful sailboats ~ and she dreams of going sailing! ~ and Lego enjoys watching the pink flamingo ~ and he dreams of catching one of these odd-looking, long-necked birds with such huge beaks! ~~~ What fun it is to visit places so different from the desert w Lydia and Lego live ~ on the beach they see so many things different! Lots of sailboats, seashells ~ and pink flamingo! Poor Lego has been pecked many times by the rooster and roadrunner back home and he certainly doesn't want to tango with these odd birds ~ but he loves to dream that he is the one doing the chasing ~ instead of being the one chased! Lydia and Lego are ~ "Dos Sonadors" ~ (Two Dreamers) This whimsical little painting is a highly collectible piece of Mexican Folk Art for all you collectors! It will add an extra special touch to the decor of any casa! Or office workplace! This is a sweet little painting with lots of Old Mexico FiEsTa colours ~ turquoise, blue, green, purple, pink, red, and gold! Enough colours to match the colour scheme of any casa! Also this would look nice in a Mexican restaurant, too! ABOUT THIS PAINTING This Mexican folk art painting is an ORIGINAL work of art, brightly painted with acrylics on a piece of thin TIN which makes it especially charming & folk artsy (tin is a most popular "canvas" to paint on in Old Mexico) Also, this piece, which is approx. 6 1/4" x 6", has been finished with several coats of non-yellowing acrylic enamel to protect and enhance its beauty for years to come. Ordinarily when I paint one of these "tins" I punch a hole in it so that it is ready to hang ~ however, this time I decided to leave the choice to you, the buyer, to decide how to display your new artwork! This tin can be displayed just as it is by placing it on a small easel, or propped against a fireplace mantle, a window sill, a bookshelf, etc. You could even attach a picture hanger hook on back ~ or with a hammer and a nail, just punch a small hole at the top ~ or perhaps two (one on each side). You could then mount it directly to the wall ~ or make a nice hanger for it with wire or raffia or ribbon! Or attach a magnet to the back (no glue needed) and this tin will stick to your refrigerator, file cabinet ~ or anything metal! Plus because of its durability it would make great outdoor decor! Lots of ideas for you to choose from. And of course you can always frame it! The front of this painting is signed by the artist, and the back is signed, titled and dated (2010). This tin is nice displayed by itself ~ or in a collection! (just as they decorate their casa in Old Mexico ~ tins all over the walls!) Also these make a wonderful gift!! ABOUT THE ARTIST The artist ~ RoMy ~ that's me! I live on the border between Texas and Mexico ~ near the Big Bend National Park ~ a few miles from Terlingua Ghost Town ~ and I love the history and culture of this area ~ a raw, still quite primitive land ~ a desert land w "rainbows wait for rain." The last few photos in this description show my outdoor studio which faces Santa Elena Canyon and the Ri... read more
