Carnival in Rio - the Biggest Party on the Planet

Carnival
IT´S CARNIVAL IN BRAZIL!

During Carnival, samba schools parade down a half-mile avenue in a spectacle of movement, color and light.

Each school´s flag swirls with a dancing couple, whose performance is crucial to winning the contest. For four days in February or March, a million-plus partygoes take part inthe extravaganza.

Feel the excitement in my painting "CARNIVAL." Fans in the bleachers join in, singing the song each school had prepared for the year. They cheer as the samba school passes. Behind the couple are more dancers and a float, making its way down the avenue.
