Southwest ~ Mexican Folk Art Paintings ~ RoMy
Title: "Cactus Sunrise"

Hola! Muchas 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:

DESCRIPTION
Abstract colourful desert cactus! This painting will liven up any wall and add a touch of Southwest - Mexico FiEsTa flavor to your casa!
This is a VERY LARGE work of art ~ almost 4 feet high! And nearly 3 feet wide! It measures 40"x32" and will spendidly decorate any wall on which it is placed ~ whether it is in your home or office workplace. Also, there are so many colours in this piece (blue, turquoise, gold, yellow, pink, red) that it will easily go with most any colour scheme!
This is a great opportunity for the right buyer to add to his or her collection of Southwest ~ Mexican Folk Art! And a perfect time to start a collection (if you haven't already) as these types of Folk Art are quite popular now ~ and increasing in value with time.
Please Note: Due to differences in computer monitors colours may vary somewhat.
ABOUT THIS PIECE
This Southwest ~ Mexican Folk Art painting is an ORIGINAL work of art, brightly painted with acrylics on gallery-wrapped, professionally stretched canvas measuring 40" x 32". This premier frame is also cross braced and has sturdy, precisely tailored corners and the canvas is tight with clean, staple-free edges ~ all four sides have been painted ~ this piece can be beautifully displayed as quickly as it arrives! There is a hanger on the back - when you receive this artwork all you need to do is place it in your special area and start enjoying it! Also, this piece has been finished with several coats of non-yellowing acrylic varnish to protect and enhance its beauty for many years to come.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
The front of this painting is signed by the artist and the back is also signed, dated (2009) 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, 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)
I enjoyed the visit ~ Gracias! And, please, while you are here take a moment to View My Other Items For Sale ~ at eBay auction I presently have two other large paintings this size in complimentary colours. Plus I have many other paintings in various sizes painted on canvas, tin, wood and ceramic.
