• Mexican folk art is a tin sign which is handmade and hand painted done in a retablo style.
  • The words and picture are all hand painted directly onto the tin.
  • The artwork features a bright red devil with a long tail dancing and smoking pot and drinking with a man. There is a skeleton dog in the room. The girlfriend is looking through the window with worried eyes.
  • Mexico’s Patron Saint, the Virgin of Guadalupe, in the cloud.
  • The words are loosely translated as follows:
  • “Jelipe [the girlfriend looking in the window] once dreamed that the devil came to him [the boyfriend] and they went out partying. Since that dream, he hasn't lacked his vices: alcohol and marijuana. Now at night, Jelipe goes out with the devil and they continue partying. Virgin of Guadalupe, take care of my neighbor and friend, s/ Jelipe Gomez Garcia.”
  • The tin sign measures 11-1/4 inches across x just under 8-3/4 inches in height.
  • Colors are bold and bright.
  • This is an original piece of artwork, bought from the artist's family in Mexico City.
  • The piece of tin used is not rigid. There may be light and camera shadows showing in the photo of the back of the tin.
  • Because this is a handmade piece of art on a piece of scrap metal and because of the type of art, the artist intended irregularities, uneven edges, slight bends in the tin, some rust, scratches and paint splotches.
