That is how this new series was born! Continue reading It all started with “I have an idea….”

Art Exhibit: Dia de los muertos / Frida Kahlo / Self-Portrait with Black Necklace and Butterfly
I have a new art piece on display in the Dia de Los Muertos exhibit through the Visual Art League of Lewisville.

The World As I See It: Shelf of Remembrance
This piece had many starts and stops but eventually came together. It is chaotic and messy just like a drunk driving accident. Continue reading The World As I See It: Shelf of Remembrance
