Look At All Those Colors

 

Moving on to another gallery on my little walk last Saturday, I found this very colorful painting.  It was at the Casa de Artistas gallery and it was painted by Fran Larsen.  I love it.  All those colors look a bit magical and yet they still seem so real for mineral-rich southwestern setting.

There was another painting by the same artist just to the right in the photo above.  It was much more whimsical but still very colorful.  I posted a photo of the front of this gallery a few years ago and looking at that old photo, I'm pretty sure the painting in the window is by the very same artist.  Take a look here. It's the second photo in that post.
