Yellow still life with black ceramics of Salta Print

Black ceramics from Salta, Northern Argentina. I met this group of tiny figures at the Mataderos feria, Buenos Aires. They were displayed on a bright yellow textile. It stroke me how a strong and interesting play was between black and yellow, the reflections on the figures, what a complicated task to paint yellow differently in a different position of surfaces. I recreated this colour combination theme adding some accents to the composition such as blue-gray jug (as well from Salta), green seeds and a wool shawl. Somehow when I look at this lovely ceramics I recall a sunny day, the taste of empanadas salteñas, thick smoke from parrillada and people dancing in the middle of the square la Jota criolla, with pleasure and pride .
