Original artwork description:
This painting of Tijuana in the 1960s depicts the energy of Avenida Revolución during its mid-century heyday. Bright storefronts, neon signs, and rows of classic American cars evoke the bustling atmosphere of the border city, where tourism and nightlife flourished. The playful clouds and vivid colors capture both the vibrancy and nostalgia of an era when Tijuana stood as a crossroads of culture and commerce.
