After several years, I will be returning to Comicpalooza (July 17-18th). I’m very much looking forward to this as before the Pandemic hit, I was just beginning to dip my feet in the water of doing shows again. This is a welcome respite for me and I can hardly wait to see all the amazing creatives. I will be in Booth 2303, so please come say hi!
Virgen de Guadalupe ...
Here is a new piece I recently completed in honor of La Virgen de Guadalupe, in association with MECA Houston and East End Studio Gallery
Here are some that I have done in the past …
Azucar ...
Recently completed for upcoming Dia De Los Muertos event at Hardy and Nance Studios, presented by East End Studio Gallery and Lizbeth Ortiz
Frida Kahlo ...
Recently completed for Virtual “Pasion de Frida 2020” event hosted by Polu Manu on December 8, 2020. Very proud to have been invited to participate once again in this event.
Hispanic Heritage Month ...
Recently completed, and on the 16th of September, no less. I was in Mexico recently for a getaway. It felt good to be some place other than the work or home I’ve been to since February, but also wonderful to revel in the pride of my ancestry. I even rewatched the movie on Chavela Vargas which is always inspiring. What a legend. I came home refreshed and ready to tackle what so inspired me about my trip.
(Here is a short presentation I’ve created especially for this month)
Amplexus ...
Recently completed, ink and oil on wood, “Amplexus”; 8 x 10”. Available in “Originals” tab above.
Recently completed preview ...
“Omnia Vanitas”
Ink, pencil, acrylic on wood
12” x 12” inches
Music for videos ...
I have been using a program to help with publishing my artwork in video format but the music available is rather limited and I certainly don’t want to run into the headache of using licensed music that i already own, so I had been looking for some alternative. What i found was an app to create music of my own. This is my second production. It’s pretty amateurish, but it’s mine :) and i’m still learning. The videos i produce are fairly short, so only portions of the songs i create are being used. It’s definitely a better option than what i was facing before.
New year, new work ...
I’d been quite busy these last few months, but not necessarily in the art department. I did a few smaller pieces here and there, but this is a larger more substantial piece worth mentioning. It’s currently still a work in progress:
Honey ...
Recently completed: Honey. 16 x 20 inches; oval canvas. Oil, acyrlic and gold leaf.
