Dia de Guadalupe 2

My second painting in this series is probably the last photo I took at the Church of the Guadalupe in Oaxaca City during the blessing of the children. This little girl had caught my eye with her colourful outfit, long necklaces and a basket that she had probably decorated herself. She was just a whirlwind of activity and I had given up trying to get a decent photo of her. Then, just as we were leaving, she parked herself on this low wall in the courtyard, retrieved a bright toy from her basket and looked up. Perfect.
