Original artwork description:

This piece is named after a southerly wind that blows from north Africa to southern Europe.
I painted this piece on unstretched canvas, while in Mexico (so that I could roll it up and fit it into a tube, on the plane). When I returned home, I had it glued to a 1/2" wood panel, which is set upon a 1" frame. This process is called marouflage. The wood is painted white. The dimensions are approximate, as the wood panel was hand cut.
