Story / Additional InfoThis still life is typical of the artist, with a somewhat Latin feeling, mostly with the orange, green and yellow colors and the drapery in the background that has a pattern derived from a Spanish shawl the artist owns. Sunlight suffuses the setting of hydrangea flowers, cannabis and fruit. The artist captures a mood of celebration- a fiesta of colors and patterns.
