I was asking a question. Is this Olmec. I am more than capable of ruining the thread. Why though?

I’m sorry.

The Olmec were a mother culture to later civilizations. The
culture of the Olmec started in Mexico’s Gulf Coast between 1200 and 1400 B.C so the time is right but the location is wrong.

The garishness of the painting, however, is a sign of Olmec egomania. They were known to have big heads.
