A good friend of mine, who took care of me (and saved my life!) when I had malaria in Gabon, had a wedding in Dallas a couple of years ago. It was a colorful Thai and Vietnamese ceremony with her sisters wearing long silk-like gowns. The men were wearing tuxedos, however. A mariachi band played lively music for their wedding. It was purely American. This painting is of an old mariachi guitar player from the wedding. I tried capturing the man's intensity and concentration. Gouache on watercolor paper, 9"x12".
