Vandera de la Republica del Ecuador (Flag of the Republic of Ecuador ) This site provides a pictorial view of some of the naif style folk art from the village of Tigua nestled between the Andes mountains of Ecuador in South America.

This paintings are enamel over dried sheepskin, stretched over a wooden frame becoming a very rustic and natural canvas. The colors are brilliant and depict daily country living, including farming, collecting potatoes, maize (corn) and herding their animals consisting of llamas, sheep, chickens and their companion/pet dogs.

Paintings are Very good quality and the older ones (late 1990's), a bit rare.

Sorry, but these paintings are not for sale any more and were put on this site solely so I can share their beauty with U and for historical reasons. 

 

Please visit my "Gallery" link to view the paintings.
