My Art story began in 2003 in the most unexpected place for me, that's another story for another day.
I became really good friends with a an amazing woman, Maria, she is also an artist. I saw a painting she painted and I was blown away. I immediately was attracted to the idea, of painting!! Soon after, I started drawing images from magazine of models and singers, etc. I did that for many years. Fast forward to 2013, one evening my husband and I were taking a walk in this popular area in Ft Lauderdale, FL., we walked past several art galleries. I saw this one particular painting and said to him “I can paint that” and he said to me, “then do it” and I did. At first, I was just painting images of other artwork, derivative, just to practice and find my style.
As I went along I started painting my own ideas and visions and over time I found my style and perfected it. I am still perfecting it, every day I learn something new. Once I started painting everything and anything Puerto Rico, I became even more passionate about art. I love painting my culture, and my people in my style, and my vision. I have been fortunate enough to participate in many art gallery showings with other artists and have been featured in a few magazine articles. I still have so much more to do. One day I would love to have my own art show, until then I will just keep creating and bringing life to my culture, mi gente Bella, my Taino ancestors, Boriken!
Along with my original Canvas Art pieces, I do offer prints of most of my art pieces and I also offer t-shirts and hoodies. I also paint ceramic clay pots. I do commission art pieces. I’ve done many commissions for those who have lost loved ones and I’ve done commissions for collectors as well. I’m always open to new ideas.
