Day In Vallarta Barry Tate Gallery of Fine Art - acrylic paintings and watercolor paintings

DAY IN VALLARTA
Mexico is a wonderful place and abounds with great scenery, especially when one ventures off the main tourists routes. One day in Puerto Vallarta while my wife Patti was taking an art course, I ventured off into the back streets armed with my camera. The climb up and down the steep and bumpy roadways was treacherous but more than worth it! They are lined with fabulous old stone and plaster buildings dripping with cascades of brightly colored flowers. Everything has a comfortable, hand-made look so refreshing from modern standards.
I liked this particular street immediately for the inviting contrast of the sunlit Spanish home framed against the cool blue shadows of the wobbly street.

ORIGINAL PAINTING:

30" x 40" acrylic on 3/4" clean-edge canvas. ( 28x38 face dimension )
A clean-edge painting can simply be hung "as is" for a modern contemporary look, or by using an optional frame that suits your decor.

GICLÉE PRINT
Giclée prints are the best type of reproductions available today.
They are supplied with a double acid free mat and foam backing board. All you need is a common 16x20" frame.
Mat options are:
    silver gray with dark blue inner mat - nice traditional look that fits well. A mid to dark colored frame looks best
    dark blue on dark blue - dramatic and bold look, very powerful. Best with a light colored frame like metallic or wood.
    white on white - traditional gallery choice, classy and elegant. Goes with all decors. Best with a mid to medium dark frame.
