My First Series
Yesterday, December 8th, I finished my first series which took four months to complete.
I am very satisfied and exited to show them. I am also in the process of getting into a show, called “El Corazon”,- an important symbol in Mexican and Latin American art, and a significant theme in western culture. The show features the work of artists from the DFW Metroplex, San Antonio, Houston, and Austin. The artwork included in El Corazón includes paintings, sculptures, photography, and mixed-media art.

This show would mean a lot to me, since I have been working so hard on completing my work, but not only that… This show fits perfectly with my series work! I really hope to get in.
Wish me luck!

This is portrait #2 of my first series : Pastels on wood panel, guesso and Colour Fix (pastel medium paint-on surface)- Fall 2010.
My inspiration behind this series is Frida Kahlo, as her work is remembered for “pain and passion”. She is definitely a big influence in my work, as I too use vibrant colors, symbolism and I draw my own reality. “I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality.”- Frida Kahlo.
My goal is to complete #6 portraits by December 15Th.
