Sobre el artista

I am passionate about painting the things I love. Through paintings I can express myself and at the same time use this visual art as an educational tool. One of the highlights in my career has been to be the recipient of the Roger Tory Peterson Institute of Natural History Award for outstanding depiction of the natural world at the SKB Foundation Artist Workshop in Dubois, Wyoming. This award was presented by the acclaimed artist John Seery-Lester. I am also honored that my art is part of the permanent art collection "Vanishing Circles" of the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson, Arizona. This collection is about threatened and endangered flora, fauna and habitats of the Sonoran Desert, and the Sonoran Desert represents my home on both sides of the border. As a developing fine artist, I was greatly influenced by my good friend and mentor Larry Wollam. He helped me develop the knowledge and love of graphite and watercolor techniques. Born and raised in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico, I was one of six children raised by my parents, a fisherman and home maker. It was with my older sister that I learned to love art in my childhood years.
