Description
La Perla, in Old San Juan, on the north shore of the island of Puerto Rico, was established in the 18th Century. It has the homes and shops of workers.
The town became world famous after the song Despocito was written by Luis Fonsi and made into the music video Despocito. It has been viewed billions of times around the world.
My painting, done with watercolor pencils, shows how the over-300 buildings were painted with many colors, before video was taken.
