The Ornamentation of Mexico

Continuing my series titled “Adornment”, I present this encaustic painting named “The Ornamentation of Mexico.”

I tried to bring out the fantastical narrative and vibrant fabric of a wondrous land so rich with luster.

I find myself visiting this paradise time and time again; I am tremendously drawn to the richness of its indigenous people, traditions, cuisine, crafts and history.

Every fiber of Mexico is filled with vibrancy and color of diversity. The country is a fusion of European and African cultures permeated with their own stories, customs and tastes; With that comes an abundance of gorgeous variety and individualism.
