Rufino Tamayo (1899-1991) is my favorite artist and has been since shortly after his death in 1991. I had the opportunity to purchase several lithographs of Tamayo's for a very good price from an art dealer in Palm Springs, CA. I didnt have the money then and the value of those lithographs today, would be about three times what I was offered. I kick myself everyday for not making the deal. I still enjoy Tamayo and his work. You can see a sample of his work at the Museo Tamayo in Mexico City, Mexico.
