About the Artist
I was born in Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico but grew up in Tucson, Arizona. I graduated from the University of Arizona with a degree in Spanish Translation and Interpretation, and Linguistics but, my true passion has always been art. My art, mainly figurative, is influenced by both my Mexican culture and the culture of the southwest and its border towns. I love to paint in bright bold colors because it speaks to who I am as a person. Including heart and soul in the process as I paint plays and important role in my work. I am self-taught but, even though I have been painting for 24 years now, I consider that my journey has been a long learning experience in the art world.
My painting subjects are often children and women. I use expressionism to create whimsical and warm images thought which I tell my stories. I often refer to my paintings as "chunks of love" because they come from deep inside of me. I go from doing oil paintings, to creating ceramic wares and garden ornaments, to working with wood, tin, or other mediums-basically I give the heart what it wants.
