I never knew that Mariachi bands had accordion players.  There is a style of music called Conjunto that features the accordion.  Well learn something new everyday!  I found a photo of a Mariachi band on pixabay.com and cropped it to create this composition.  I love the visual interest of the accordion with all the keys, buttons and squeezebox area.  I can't imagine being able to play it.  And the happy sounds just make you want to dance.  On a fun note, my brother when young played the accordion so maybe that's why I was drawn to the photo.

I use professional artist acrylic paints in all my acrylic paintings for permanence and longevity.  Ampersand Gessobord has a professional quality acid-free acrylic ground on a wood museum series panel.
