Location: United States
I was born in Habana, Cuba and at the age of 8, my parents sent me to the US alone to avoid indoctrination in Russia to communism. I was part of 14,000 children that arrived in Miami and were sent to orphanages or foster care. It was in the orphanage that I developed my love for art. I would draw pictures to send to my parents to let them know that I was ok. I learned that through my art I was able to bring peace and joy to my parents. My mom still has some of these pictures. I was reunited with my parents about a year later. After high school, I wanted to go to art school but I wanted to help my parents so I went to secretarial school and went into the business world where I climbed the corporate letter and became very successful. My love for art was always there. I am a self taught artist that has worked in many mediums. In the last 10 years, I have been creating and perfecting the pouring process with Pebeo paints. I have exhibited in Spectrum and Red Dot in Miami, New York Expo, SOFA in Chicago, San Diego, Dallas and the Hamptons. I have been published in several art magazines and represented by several galleries.
I am always fascinated by Nature. This piece Sand Dunes xreates a remarkable sense of depth and motion inviting the viewer to see more and discover new imagery with each glance/. There is a delicate transition between light and dar which provides a balance by dramatic contours and richly textured passages. There is both tranquility and energy
