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
A beautiful little Virgen de Guadalupe painted to appear as though she were displayed in a niche! This "niche" has a lovely border of roses ~~ This piece has a very luminous-like effect ~ just seems to almost shimmer!
This is a highly collectible piece of Mexican Folk Art for all you collectors & 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, red, pink, purple, burnt orange 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, it is hand-painted, done with acrylics on a ceramic tile which makes it especially charming & folk artsy. Also, this piece, which is approx. 6 1/2" x 6 1/2", has been finished with several coats of non-yellowing acrylic enamel to protect and enhance its beauty for many years to come. This retablo can be displayed on a small easel, or propped against a fireplace mantle, a window sill, a bookshelf, etc. It would look nice on a coffee table or in a curio cabinet. You could even attach a picture hanger hook on back (the paper tag stick-on kind) ~ or it could even be bonded directly to your wall! Please note this easel is for diplay only and is NOT included with this painting. The front of this painting is signed by the artist, and the back is signed, titled and dated (2010).
This ceramic is nice displayed by itself ~ or in a collection!
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 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
