Rustic and Crusty

South of Puerto Vallarta is the village of Yelapa, accessible only by boat. Yelapa is a blast from the past : very simple, rustic and suited to a very bare bones,  natural, care free lifestyle. .....inhabited by many artists.

  1. Page,
    This is wonderful. Love the blues and greens in the water and the boats in the distance are really nice. Boat at front of canvas is full of rusty, crusty character. Bet this is fabulous in person at 30 X 30.
