Caribbean Island Art

 

Ethnic art has always fascinated me.

It's a delight to see the designs and styles of artists from all corners of the earth.

The clay dish seen in this post came from a Caribbean Island off the coast of Cancun, Mexico.

A first glance of the dish in a thrift store showed that it was definitely Latino styled art. 

Then, I saw the words "Isla de Mujeres" lightly painted on the bottom of the piece.

That's how it was found where it was from.

The colors,  details, and story it could tell about the people on the painted dish, all fascinate.

The painter's name is on the back.

It's a nice little dish that makes a bold statement, now adorning  the wall of a small apartment in western Massachusetts!
