Music for Andrés Valencia - (Cheryl Pyle, Max Ridgway, Urbuli Baba)

Back on Youtube after taking a bit of a break and spending last month travelling about, visiting family and friends... This is our newest trio piece with the (always) amazing Cheryl & Max, and a tribute to a very young and very promising painter! Here's the description from Max's channel:
"Andres Valencia (b. 2011) is a California-based contemporary artist known for large, dramatic, colorful figurative paintings influenced by Cubism. Valencia has been painting since he was five years old. He stands on a step ladder to create large-scale works with a mix of oil stick, and oil and acrylic paint, seeking to create bold colors and wildly imaginative fragmented facial compositions. Teachers involved in his California public school Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) program quickly identified his extraordinary talent. Surrounded by art at home, Valencia is inspired by Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso, George Condo, and Salvador Dalí."
As usual, don't forget to check out Max's and Cheryl's own work on their respective channels:
