I Love how the characters in the murals below seem to be reacting to the dancers in front of them. Such fun!
This studious-looking dancer seems aware of the disapproval of the Huichol woman behind her.
Dancer and mural observer seem equally petulant.
I asked Isidro to translate “In Mexico There is Always Music”–the name of a piece I had written–into Spanish. Instead, he wrote a brief poem on that subject in Spanish which I then translated into English! So this is a see-saw bit of poetry that I then had him paint on my wall.

Outstanding murals. Nicer than anything around here.

Done by my friend Jesus Lopez Vega who did a number of murals at my house as well.

They are around every corner in Mexico. We have a huge number of artists in our villages on this side of the lake.

Judy these photos are marvelous. Having the dancers in the photos really adds depth and color. On your first photo, when I first saw it I had not scrolled all the way down to the bottom only the top 3/4 was showing. I was amazed that they painted (the dancer not knowing it was an actual person) with glasses on. I had to just stare at it. 😀

I know…The photos are surreal–like the characters are coming out of the murals.

You said it perfectly. If you cropped out the sidewalk you would not know the difference. Well maybe not. 😀
