This handmade art piece is a beautiful and unique depiction of the iconic garita from El Morro, surrounded by tropical waves crafted from varying shades of blue acrylic. Each piece is individually handcrafted, ensuring that no two are exactly alike, and making it a truly one-of-a-kind piece of art.
The garita itself is painted to emulate the cobblestone pattern that can be seen on the streets of Viejo San Juan, giving it a distinctive and authentic look. The top of the garita also features some weathering caused by the constant battering of the sea against the stone, adding a touch of realism to the piece.
The tropical waves are made from varying shades of blue acrylic, giving them a dynamic and lifelike appearance. The piece also features a hand-painted sunset or sunny sky, adding to the beauty and serenity of the scene.
Overall, this handmade art piece is a stunning tribute to the beauty and history of Puerto Rico, capturing the essence of El Morro and the tropical waves that surround it in a unique and captivating way. It is sure to be a conversation starter and a cherished piece of art for anyone who loves Puerto Rico or the beauty of the natural world.
The paint is sealed with polyurethane but should not be cleaned with cleaner of any kind. Use a soft cloth to clean if needed.
The frame is 5x5 inches and is raw wood. It hangs from a jute string or a saw toothed hanger on the back. It is hand signed by me.
