May 1, 2015

Timeless Art from the David Villasenor Studio - Nothing speaks to the spirit of the Southwest quite like Mexican culture. From the earliest days of our founding as a nation, Mexican culture has been an intricate part of our fabric. Whether it be the Trail of Tears, the Old Spanish Trail, or our early pioneers exploring areas south of the border yet recognized, the working class of Mexico has a solid place in American history.

Celebrate that spirit with the Armendaris Oil Painting on Canvas. From the studio of famed artist David Villasenor come these incredible portrayals of rich Mexican culture. Each of these original paintings represents a specific moment in time captured by the artist himself. Since the painting is based off of the photographed subject, the detail is quite striking.

The Armendaris piece, in particular, features an almost surreal expression.
