Title: Desert Serenade
Size: 20" x 16" ~ BiG SiZe PAINTING!!!
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 original painting:
DESCRIPTION
"Desert Serenade" is a beautiful blending of southwest colour ~ gorgeous mountains ~ and tiny stars ~ in shades of blue and turquoise, and just a sliver of a pink moon. Sitting in the windowsill is a beautiful senorita wearing a lovely dress in a soft shade of lavender ~ and a small cross necklace. Beside her is a gorgeous pot of calla lillies. Outside beneath the moon and stars, next to the saquaro and prickly pear cactus ~ a gold colored coyote serenades the senorita ~ and the moon ~ with a song.
This is a large-size piece of art ~ one that is sure to add an aura of the Southwest and Old Mexico to anyone's home ~ or office at work. This great painting is a fabulous 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 (if you haven't already) 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 20" x 16". This premier frame has sturdy, precisely tailored corners and the canvas is tight with clean, staple-free edges ~ this piece can be displayed framed or frameless. 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 (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 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)
I enjoyed the visit ~ Gracias! And, please, while you are here take a moment to
