My works is a series of journal entries that documented all the memories and imaginations flowing out of me. The internal image of my mother gave a great deal of inspiration. The memory of her face is still fresh in my mind. She taught me to be strong, wise, and thankful for every day of my life. The many struggles she passed through made her eyes look sad but her smile stays bright and happy.
My mother taught me to feel, experience, and appreciate. I learned her lesson. I paint what I remember from the past and what I see around me today. Through my artwork I tell my own story and the stories of others who do not have a chance to be heard. I want to relate, connect, and achieve unity with others. I wish each of you to become a part of my life as well as me to become a part of yours.
Artist’s Statement
I paint of my people and from my people, my family, my friends, and God because He is special and they believe in me. My life in Mexico gave a brilliant stimulation to a life of painting. My artwork is colorful and bright. It reflects the culture of Veracruz Mexico with its rich history and deep spirituality. The palette of my works is wide extended. I believe that life is beautiful and color possibilities are amazing. I like to use deep purple, sunbeam yellow, strong shades of blue, green, and red to make images active and sensuous.
