Guacamole  Oil  8 x 8  SOLD
Here's the last of the recent Mexican themed paintings. I had a lot of fun doing them because I love colour and pattern. I have a lot of images from my trip that are still beckoning me but I've switched over to some larger pieces as I'm preparing for the upcoming Oak Bay Artists' Spring Studio Tour. I'll post those over the next couple of weeks. If you're in Victoria mark you calendar for the Studio Tour on Saturday and Sunday, April 20 and 21 from 12:00 - 4:30 pm. The tour brochure is available at recreation.oakbay.ca on the events page. (I couldn't seem to get the link to take, do you something about that?)

This is only the second avocado painting I've ever done. The first was a Christmas gift for my daughter who's favourite food is the avocado.
