Sometimes we are off center because we look elsewhere for our blessings. But all the while, we missed seeing that we are always bathed in God's grace. We have just have to look straight in where we are or from where have been to recognize God's continued blessings to us.

This is a gouache painting I quickly did on September 30, 2024 using gouache and colored pencils. I like surrealist imagery, and "A Plutocrat In A Hat" seems to be just that.

Second Place 2009 NAP Art in City Hall Adult Intermediate

Works on Paper

This abstract work, completed in 2014 combines drawing, water-wash pastel, ink and watercolor with opaque latex paint overlay. The work is done on paper and is not varnished. The picture explores issues of scale in organic patterns and interaction of shape at a more abstract level. Here, the larger of the two opaque shapes might represent a mother, host, or predator to the smaller. The exact nature of the relationship is not made clear, as might be the case if one were to peer briefly into a microscope to observe various unclassified forms.

Chaos In My Mind

Painting

30 x 40 oil painting of a Taino Chief who died defending her tribe in a Carib invasion. True story, a town in Puerto Rico is named after her called Loisa de Aldea. This is my rendition of her with actual Taino artifacts found in the Museum of Puerto Rico.

The whole existence is nothing but one universal self covered by the layer of illusion named as reality!

This image of The Great Wave by Hokusai was digitally altered and merged with the Japanese empirial flag. I then created a multi-layered stencil for the kite and a seperate stencil for the kiteboarder. The digital images were printed on a heavy canvas fabric and then stretched over a frame. Then the stencils were spraypainted onto the fabric.
