Welcome to my art page. I have met many of you at Art shows and wish to thank you for keeping me painting. Even if you don't buy, I appreciate the comments and interest in my work. It's what makes art gratifying and inspiring. I paint from a point of view that our forms (outer shells) or body image is what we wish to represent us, and yet we are quite vulnerable inside. Our inner reality is what we protect and feel naked when it is exposed. I paint these inner realities and the outer coverings (forms) are not treated with any great care except to expose some of the character inner elements. In fact, it is you (the viewer) that see's this. It is you that makes the connection according to your own perspective. My work is mostly viewed at Art shows (see Schedule) because I love meeting you and my perspective art patrons. I feel better knowing that my subjects (all have names), will be in good homes.
I make up prints of the originals and go over them with color for extra enhancement and long value.

Clara. Painted on 200 cold press paper with acrylics in Jan 26,2012. It depicts as usual, my whimsical ladies. I place hats on them as to not make a statement with hair. They are all of another time and place and yet, very much like today. The women have large shoulders as I have come to know they are stronger and more nurturing than men. They handle pain better.

Care of my original paintings. They are painted on cold press paper which is a porous fiber. When shipped they may be concave and not lay flat. Simply spray a mist of water front and back with spray bottle and lay flat. It will dry flat. I like them framed in a floating fashion so they not be in contact with glass. They will last your life time to be enjoyed by you and later, your children and grandchildren. They belong in good homes for they are all special full with emotion. Luis
