Mexico In The Dreams Of My Youth

I always loved Mexico, the people, the history, the music, the land,the architecture...so it happened that I painted a picture, thebackground of this image when I was about 16! Sometime ago I took apicture of a masterfully done paper and plastic sculpture of thefigure which I decided to put where it belonged, in the picture of mydreams!

Thank you for your attention dear colleagues!

Well done!  So you were always the artist, my friend.

I love it. As you I am a big fan of Mexican culture. Very fitting. FS

I just LOVE IT Pierre !!!! I think it is one of your BEST  CREATIONS yet, and I can understand why you love the country and it's people. I think Alberto here on PN is a 'shining example' of a happy Mexican 'Ambassador !!

Back to this wonderful WORK OF ART.  It reminds me a bit of 'Paper Mache', at least the figure, finely done, and is perfect for this background you did so many years ago. I would hope you would FRAME IT and hang in a favorite spot in your home, ever reminding you of your youth, your love of that country, and your LOVE of LIFE itself. Whenever life sends you clouds, you can chase them away just by looking at this beautiful creation!

BRAVO TO YOU!!! Fantastic Creation!!!

With Warmest regards, Gail

My best regards.

Dominick, the teacher of painting in my elementary school was always saying that I do horses better than himself! Yes, I was drawing and painting as long as I can remember!

Frank, welcome to my portfolio (I think you are here for the first time) and thank you for your visit and comment!

Gail, thank you for your kind support, I appreciate it very much! I printed this image and it's right behind me now! The original painting was framed in glass and was on my bedroom wall until some changes were done and I don't know even where it is now!

Kallol, I thought of that, but I think it isn't necessary for the figure already resembles and represents a revolutionary with those cartridge belts!

Really beautiful creative work again, Pierre!

With best regards,

Well done, Pierre, the sculpture fits perfect in the enviroment you've drawn. all the best!

Bravo!  I think it looks like a spaceman, though.  best, j

Impressive and well done, Pierre. I like the color combination. Regards.

I love the nostalgia in this photograph: the fact that you included something from your childhood. Our childhood makes us who we are, and we should celebrate that. As always, great post-porcessing work!

excellent creativity!

Fun, very interesting image and nice colors! Best regards.

Mio caro amico, dopo il mio brutto incidente è bello ritovare belle immagini come le tue che ti ridanno la gioia di vivere!

Una obra muy creativa. Saludos

very nice!

My good friend, Pierre,

Your creativity knows no end, which in itself defines Infinite.

You creations certainly demonstrate your genius , and this image and artistic presentation is no exception.

Warmest Regards,  Uncle Mike

Very well composed, Pierre. A shootout in mexico.

cheers, Hans

Another beautiful creation worked to completion.Quiet interesting ,you have taken a  vertical split to color the sun.

Warm regards,

Pierre, as always your creativity knows no limits and inspires me and others.

I also love Mexico and I lived and travelled throughout Mexicot. I went to college in Cholula, Puebla and years later worked for a Fortune 50 company doing business globally. 

What impressed me most is the capture of the huararches, the sandals...and the cotton pants (manta ochenta is the cotton weight) and the tunic.

You remain "Mi Maéstro".

Saludos, amigo.

Reminds me a bit of those old Western movies with the Mexican Bandits! 

Cool presentation and a work of art!

Kind regards,

This one reminded me the wall paintings of Diego Rivera and Orosoko in Mexico.Nice color and nice composition.

a little masterpiece

Very cool image. I could see it on my wall. The man is a sculpture I guess. Did you make the background or is it in the same piece as the man?

Chuck, as I said in my request for critique, the background is a painting I made 40 years ago and the figure I found in front of a cafe in my town, don't know who has made it!
