I was having lunch in Rincon , and noticed a fabulous piece of art at the bar , very colorful!
Does anyone know who the artist is?

Go back again and ask would be better then sending somebody to ask for you.

Anne
I am really only guessing here, but I would say that there is a good chance that the artist is Henk Rozendaal. This is just because of your brief description. His art is all over the island.

Mickey's probably right. Henk's work can be seen at Cactus Blue, Tipsy Seagull, Cultimara, donkey sanctuary at least that I know of.

We commissioned him in 2008 for our portrait seen here: http://henkroozendaal.exto.nl/site/kunstwerk/12556190_LOVE.html

They have a funky display of local artists at Kon Tiki as well. We took home some Susan (?) Huckeby stuff a couple of years ago, and it looks lovely on our wall...

Barbie - Glad you like the portrait. We think it's his best work!! Gee, I wonder why!

Vince - You're welcome for the past info. Please let me know how it goes.

Jan does have some very nice artwork as well. Now if I only had a bigger house.

Well Barbara unfortunately that picture was taken in 2003, but I like to think that I have not changed to much. I have been looking to see if I can find a similar but more current one. Soon I think.
Mick
