paint several mural-size canvases and a number of smaller oil compositions
for their newly opened offices in Caracas, Venezuela. At that time, the
company was launching a full-scale marketing promotion of their cellular

Some of the figures standing or sitting by the fruit stands in the lower
section of the above painting are using cell phones, as is the man in the
small power boat crossing the large area of water just above the fruit stands
in that same lower left-hand corner. Also, if you squint your eyes, you may

American Liberator Simon Bolivar in the little town wharf by the white
building under the red "Motorola" billboard.
