This painting is hung in my parent’s bedroom. It’s possible I was conceived beneath its cool blue artwork. How romantic!
If anyone is ever stumped for a birthday gift for me, something like this would do.

That painting is by Abel Velasquez. Very popular hispanic velvet painter. He also does low-riders…

…and here is his picture.
Thanks for the info. I’m going to quiz my folks where they aquired it. Maybe from Mr. Velasquez himself!?
