WatercolorArtist Alicia J. Stonebreaker, Polish born and trained at the Academy of Fine Arts, Poznan, Poland and the Kassel Art Academy in Germany, painted this great watercolor at the Museum Of Modern Art in Mexico City, Mexico. In 1975 Alicia and her husband, Judge John Connarn, vacationed here for three weeks. Alicia painted several watercolors in Mecico City and Taxco, Mexico. Many people consider Taxco to be the most picturesque area of Mexico. Taxco (pronounced Tahs'co), is located three to four hours drive from Mexico City. The town has been declared a national historical monument to preserve the colonial architecture and heritage. Alicia once said to her son, “The people of Taxco are friendly and cheerful”. |
