About This Image

It’s been several years since I was there but I will never forget the buzz of life on Mexico City streets. There seemed to be a near-constant rhythm of life there. The only city I’ve seen so far that I considered comparable was Cairo. Both cities seemed impossibly full of people. And it was that feeling of being at the heart of a human bee hive that was simply fascinating.

This Mexico City street scene is a good example of the continuous buzz on the streets as well as the colorful views south of the border. I remember standing on this particular street corner near Mexico City’s Alameda Central Park. There was something about the beautiful blue of that building on the opposite corner and the shops on that corner that attracted my attention. I stood there for a bit trying to wait out the traffic. And it quickly became apparent that the traffic on Mexico City Streets never stops!

And just as soon as I had that realization, I decided to work with the traffic, to wait for that special moment that involved not just the people on the Mexico City streets but the cars as well. It’s been the norm for me to wait for people to hit the right spot in a scenic street scene, but I have to admit I normally don’t try to include cars. But as soon as I found that perfect moment, the moment this artwork is based upon, I knew that in a place like Mexico City, the cars as well as the people are part of that colorful rhythm of life. An image of the Mexico City Streets near the Centro that was devoid of cars would never read as “right” to anyone who has been there!

Have you walked the streets of Mexico City? Or does this colorful south of the border print speak to you without the experience of this amazing city? I hope you might take a few moments to share with me what you find most striking about this particular print?

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
