In The Battle of Flowers Parade 在遊行道中

The Battle of Flowers Parade was held during the Fiesta Festival in San Antonio every year in April. It was one of the largest parades in US. It has marching bands, horses, dancers, and many fun characters. All floats were decorated with bright colors and flowers. It was fun to enjoy a day or a week in San Antonio during Fiesta. This beautiful Spanish lady on horse was waving to the crowd. Don't you just love her dress and her hat?  I surly do.

This painting won an "Honorable Mention" award in the "Texas" fine art show in the New Braunfels Art Gallery this month (July 2011).  Here are judge's comments:  "Very well done in a painterly approach.  Great proportions! The yellow skirt really pops in this painting."

Oil on canvas board, 14x11
