Esperanza, Hope

Esperanza... This piece was catalyst in my creative process.  She was created with raw emotions, and a lot of passion for life.

Made with a main canvas cloth dipped in foliage and iron (eco printed) then painted with earth pigments, graphite and wax sticks, it embodied all that I am... a precious mess of natural wander. 

I love how imperfection teaches us to be patient and to look beauty beyond what we can see and what the system tells us about beauty standards.... Hope... for us, for the world... Life is magical friends, you just have to believe. 

Below is a video of my process.

I hope everything is good with you! Make sure to follow my instagram since I’m more active over there. As always, I send you a hug!

Creating Art with texture

After creating artwork with figurative portraits, I’m back again at painting abstracts. This time playing with textures. I really liked doing this pieces, playing around with acrylic skins and textile.

After I finishes the first piece, I noticed it had the same color scheme as the previous portrait I did. My mind is a sponge for sure.

The second piece I did, I decided to add strips of fabric I had from another multimedia piece I will share with you soon. I have a time-lapse vide that I did so you can se my process. You can watch it below.

Mix Media art process created with acrylic, acrylic skins, textile, and wax crayons

This last piece reminds me of Las Salinas in Cabo Rojo Puerto Rico, a salt flat that forms a pretty pink lake. Is a great visit if you are in the island.

Can’t wait to create a bigger body of work with skins!!
