Shutters in Belize

22x15 watercolor painted from photos I took while in Belize City; this old white wooden house had been let go and run down as were most of the older stately homes and mansions the British built.  Its fence also was trying to hold on with tall spindly white pickets guarding the secrets within.  Palm fronds and tropical flowering bushes nicely framed a lone green shuttered window.
