Four Gauchos in Argentina Canvas Print

A trip to an authentic, Argentina Estancia, or ranch, is always a special experience. After a traditional asado "al asador," gaucho-style lunch featuring famous Argentine beef, cooked by the gauchos on wood-fed hearths and served by them, there is entertainment, including danching and Tango dancers.
After all that, a horse show is enjoyed by visitors. The gauchos, with their long days on the estancia, working hard with the crops and horses, enjoy games, played while riding their horses! These four Gauchos have just completed the Ring game, which features a gaucho riding full-speed ahead and trying to put a little prong into a small ring, thus removing the ring. The guy on the left in the pink shirt was successful most of the time! Afterwards, some people got to jump on the back of the horse and ride around the field while the rest of us took pictures. These four riders and their horses all obliged by looking in the same directions! The traditions of the gauchos carry on.

I have been taking pictures since I was young. I love the outdoors and enjoy taking landscape and botanical photos. With my lifelong interest in and study of interior design and architecture, I greatly enjoy taking pictures of buildings, interiors, and art. I have pursued my love of art and creation by making collages with many different themes. I am also interested in the Aboriginal arts of Australia, Pointillism, Dot Art, and watercolors. I have included some of my work in various Collections. I am a retired teacher, play golf, travel, camp, make jewelry, read, paint, make collages, and sew. Thank you for viewing my galleries.
