Wall artwork

This was the museum in Al-Namas, which was full of informative exhibits. I have found, though, that my main interest in places like this is the colorful traditional artwork on the walls, common to houses in Asir.

Our visit was covered in the local and national press, and the resulting article (in English) is below, but please go to the picture – large view -- to be able to read it!

I really like this kind of art too. The triangles, squares and lines all work so well together. The colors add to the interest. V
