Mexican Folk Art~RoMyTitle: Mercado Dia (Market Day)
Size: 14"x11"
Hola! Muchos Gracias for stopping by my Terlingua Art Studio near Big Bend National Park & Old Mexico! For your consideration today I am offering this bright and colourful painting titled "Mercado Dia" which depicts a busy day at market ~ lots of fabulous Mexican Talavera pottery for sale in this village in Old Mexico ~ and beautiful calla lillies, too! There are pretty senoritas and hombres buying and selling their wares. The senoritas are wearing their most colourful clothing, beautiful necklaces and earrings, and hairpieces, too! They are looking their best this day ~ and everyone is happy and having much fun while they sell and shop!
Gorgeous colours of turquoise, blue, purple, yellow, red and desert tan ~ will go with the colour scheme of most any casa (home)!
This special piece is a great opportunity for the right buyer to add to his or her collection of Mexican Folk Art! And what a perfect time to start a collection as Mexican Folk Art is quite popular now ~ and increasing in value with time.
ABOUT THIS PIECE
This Mexican Folk Art painting is an ORIGINAL work of art, brightly painted with acrylics on gallery-wrapped, professionally stretched canvas measuring 14" x 11". This premier frame has sturdy, precisely tailored corners and the canvas is tight with clean, staple-free edges ~ and all four sides have been painted ~ this piece can be beautifully displayed & enjoyed the moment you receive it! There is a hanger on the back - when you receive this artwork all you need to do is place it in your special area! Also, this piece has been finished with a non-yellowing acrylic varnish to protect and enhance its beauty for years to come.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
The front of this painting is signed by the artist and the back is also signed, dated, and titled. By the way the artist "Romy" - that's me! I live on the border between Texas and Old 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 where "rainbows wait for rain." The last few photos in this description show my outdoor studio which faces Santa Elena Canyon and the Rio Grande River, the natural border between Old Mexico and Texas ~ and it is from this primitive setting ~ 80 miles from town ~ that I find most of my inspiration for painting. (in the photos Mexico is on the left side of the river and Texas is on the right)
