Original painting 15x22" painted on Arches 300lb professional watercolor paper. Hand signed by artist (not pictured). Unframed.

This extraordinary painting is a rare fusion of adventure, culture, and the irreplaceable moments of family exploration. Inspired by a journey through Mexico, every brushstroke is infused with the essence of discovery—vivid colors drawn from sun-drenched streets, the unexpected thrill of an iguana crossing our path, and the beauty found in life’s perfect imperfections, from sudden downpours to hidden detours. These artworks are not merely paintings; they are heirlooms of experience, each one a singular creation that can never be replicated. To own this piece is to hold a fragment of a journey—a luxury reserved for those who understand that true wealth is not just in what is acquired, but in what is lived.

Original painting is shipped flat, sealed in watertight plastic sleeve. USPS Priority Mail (1-3 days) with tracking and insurance (domestic US).

This painting is based on the artist’s original travel photograph (or imagination).  This is a real watercolor painting (no AI art).
