Colors of facade

When someone says Cuba, my mind automatically goes to these colorful houses in Havana. I didn't want to overload my painting with buildings so I took blue, red and yellow and put it in a background. I thought of all this photo of Cuban women with a cigar and how we can see a facade behind them - we can only see a color.
