I was born in Havana,Cuba,and came to the US as a very young child. Being a self taught artist now living in Miami, Florida, I started painting after retirement and haven't stopped painting since. My artwork is a celebration of people living in harmony with nature, often bringing animals into the picture to complete the scene. I primarily work with oils and pastels, though I am always eager to explore new mediums that offer fresh ways to express my vision.
My subject matter is drawn from everyday moments captured during walks or travels. When something catches my eye (a vibrant color, a simple activity, or a commonplace scene that we might overlook) I photograph it immediately. These images serve as the seeds for my paintings, anchoring my work in real life and authentic experience.
Ultimately, I strive to transform everyday moments into memorable pieces of art, inviting viewers to see the world from a fresh perspective. I invite you to connect with me and discover the beauty of creativity together.
